[ Upstream commit 2284f47fe9fe2ed2ef619e5474e155cfeeebd569 ]

sparse_buffer_init() and sparse_buffer_fini() should appear in pair, or a
WARN issue would be through the next time sparse_buffer_init() runs.

Add the missing sparse_buffer_fini() in error branch.

<title>mm/memory_hotplug: remove "zone" parameter from sparse_remove_one_section</title>

<content type='text'>
commit b9bf8d342d9b443c0d19aa57883d8ddb38d965de upstream.

The parameter is unused, so let's drop it.  Memory removal paths should
never care about zones.  This is the job of memory offlining and will
require more refactorings.

<title>mm/memory_hotplug: allow arch_remove_memory() without CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE</title>

commit 80ec922dbd87fd38d15719c86a94457204648aeb upstream.

-- snip --

Missing arm64 memory hot(un)plug support.

-- snip --

We want to improve error handling while adding memory by allowing to use
arch_remove_memory() and __remove_pages() even if
CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is not set to e.g., implement something like:

	arch_add_memory()
	rc = do_something();
	if (rc) {
		arch_remove_memory();
	}

We won't get rid of CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE for now, as it will require
quite some dependencies for memory offlining.

<title>mm, sparse: pass nid instead of pgdat to sparse_add_one_section()</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 4e0d2e7ef14d9e1c900dac909db45263822b824f upstream.

Since the information needed in sparse_add_one_section() is node id to
allocate proper memory, it is not necessary to pass its pgdat.

This patch changes the prototype of sparse_add_one_section() to pass node
id directly.  This is intended to reduce misleading that
sparse_add_one_section() would touch pgdat.

commit 4e0d2e7ef14d9e1c900dac909db45263822b824f upstream.

Since the information needed in sparse_add_one_section() is node id to
allocate proper memory, it is not necessary to pass its pgdat.

This patch changes the prototype of sparse_add_one_section() to pass node
id directly.  This is intended to reduce misleading that
sparse_add_one_section() would touch pgdat.

<title>mm, sparse: drop pgdat_resize_lock in sparse_add/remove_one_section()</title>

commit 83af658898cb292a32d8b6cd9b51266d7cfc4b6a upstream.

pgdat_resize_lock is used to protect pgdat's memory region information
like: node_start_pfn, node_present_pages, etc.  While in function
sparse_add/remove_one_section(), pgdat_resize_lock is used to protect
initialization/release of one mem_section.  This looks not proper.

These code paths are currently protected by mem_hotplug_lock currently but
should there ever be any reason for locking at the sparse layer a
dedicated lock should be introduced.

Following is the current call trace of sparse_add/remove_one_section()

    mem_hotplug_begin()
    arch_add_memory()
       add_pages()
           __add_pages()
               __add_section()
                   sparse_add_one_section()
    mem_hotplug_done()

    mem_hotplug_begin()
    arch_remove_memory()
        __remove_pages()
            __remove_section()
                sparse_remove_one_section()
    mem_hotplug_done()

The comment above the pgdat_resize_lock also mentions "Holding this will
also guarantee that any pfn_valid() stays that way.", which is true with
the current implementation and false after this patch.  But current
implementation doesn't meet this comment.  There isn't any pfn walkers to
take the lock so this looks like a relict from the past.  This patch also
removes this comment.

sparse_init() requires to temporary allocate two large buffers: usemap_map
and map_map.  Baoquan He has identified that these buffers are so large
that Linux is not bootable on small memory machines, such as a kdump boot.
The buffers are especially large when CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL is set, as they
are scaled to the maximum physical memory size.

Baoquan provided a fix, which reduces these sizes of these buffers, but it
is much better to get rid of them entirely.

Add a new way to initialize sparse memory: sparse_init_nid(), which only
operates within one memory node, and thus allocates memory either in large
contiguous block or allocates section by section.  This eliminates the
need for use of temporary buffers.

For simplified bisecting and review temporarly call sparse_init()
new_sparse_init(), the new interface is going to be enabled as well as old
code removed in the next patch.

Now that both variants of sparse memory use the same buffers to populate
memory map, we can move sparse_buffer_init()/sparse_buffer_fini() to the
common place.

Now that both variants of sparse memory use the same buffers to populate
memory map, we can move sparse_buffer_init()/sparse_buffer_fini() to the
common place.

fails falls back to smaller allocations.  Use the same functions to
allocate buffer as the vmemmap-sparse
