A couple things.

This will conflict with "powerpc/pseries: Avoid NULL pointer dereference
when drmem is unavailable" which is in linuxppc/next-test:
   
   https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1231904/

Regardless, I don't think trading the iterator macros for open-coded
loops improve the code:

[...]

drmem_lmb_xa should go in the drmem_info structure if you can't make it
static in drmem.c.

The flag management is logically separate from the iterator changes, so
splitting that out would ease review.

Looking further... yes, this needs to be a series of smaller changes
please.
