[PATCH 0/8] memblock: improve late freeing of reserved memory

[Mike Rapoport]

From: "Mike Rapoport (Microsoft)" <rppt at kernel.org>

Hi,

Following a recent discussion about leaks in x86 EFI [1], I audited usage of
memblock_free_late() and free_reserved_area() and made some imporovements how
we handle late freeing of the memory allocated with memblock.

Mike Rapoport (Microsoft) (8):
  powerpc: fadump: pair alloc_pages_exact() with free_pages_exact()
  powerpc: opal-core: pair alloc_pages_exact() with free_pages_exact()
  mm: move free_reserved_area() to mm/memblock.c
  memblock: make free_reserved_area() more robust
  memblock: extract page freeing from free_reserved_area() into a helper
  memblock: make free_reserved_area() update memblock if ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK=y
  memblock, treewide: make memblock_free() handle late freeing
  memblock: warn when freeing reserved memory before memory map is
    initialized
