But it causes possible panic bug. So Daniel Vacek reverted it later. But memblock_next_valid_pfn is valid when CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID is enabled. And as verified by Eugeniu Rosca, arm can benifit from this commit. So remain the memblock_next_valid_pfn.It is not dependent on CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID option but on arm(64) implementation of pfn_valid() function, IIUC. So it should really be moved from generic source file to arm specific location. I'd say somewhere close to the pfn_valid() implementation. Such as to arch/arm{,64}/mm/ init.c-ish? --nX
Ok, thanks for your suggestions. I will try to move the related codes to arm arch directory. Cheer, Jia
