Even simpler, no need to iterate over zones at all, only over nodes:
#ifdef CONFIG_ZONE_DMA
bool has_managed_dma(void)
{
struct pglist_data *pgdat;
for_each_online_pgdat(pgdat) {
struct zone *zone = &pgdat->node_zones[ZONE_DMA];
if (managed_zone(zone)
return true;
}
return false;
}
#endif /* CONFIG_ZONE_DMA */
Without CONFIG_ZONE_DMA, simply provide a dummy in the header that
returns false.
