[RFC PATCH v1] pseries/drmem: don't cache node id in drmem_lmb struct

[Scott Cheloha]

At memory hot-remove time we can retrieve an LMB's nid from its
corresponding memory_block.  There is no need to store the nid
in multiple locations.

The linear search in powerpc's memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() has become a
bottleneck at boot on systems with many LMBs.

As described in this patch here:

https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/20200221172901.1596249-2-cheloha@linux.ibm.com/

the linear search seriously cripples drmem_init().

The obvious solution (shown in that patch) is to just make the search
in memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() faster.  An XArray seems well-suited
to the task of mapping an address range to an LMB object.

The less obvious approach is to just call memory_add_physaddr_to_nid()
in fewer places.

I'm not sure which approach is correct, hence the RFC.

The attached patch is an example of how we could just eliminate the
memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() calls during drmem_init().  Unless this
is somehow an abuse of the memory_block I think retrieving the nid in
this way deduplicates memoization.

There is another spot where we don't *need* to search by address to
find the node id.  In dlpar_memory_add() we're calling lmb_set_nid(),
which is just memory_add_physaddr_to_nid().  But we could easily bypass
the search and call of_drconf_to_nid_single() directly with the LMB we
already have a pointer to.

Then again, I see callers like the xen balloon driver and probe_store()
that seemingly need to do an address-to-nid lookup.

So, does memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() need to be fast?  Should I bite
the bullet and make it fast so we can leverage it without slowdown?
Or is calling it in fewer places an acceptable approach?
