That's rather unreadable and has random whitespace noise.

Should be something like:

	lmb.memory.region		= lmb_memory_region;
	lmb.memory.region_array_size	= ARRAY_SIZE(lmb_memory_region);
	lmb.reserved.region		= lmb_reserved_region;
	lmb.reserved.region_array_size	= ARRAY_SIZE(lmb_reserved_region);

also, i'd suggest to shorten region_array_size to region_size (we know it's an 
array), so it would become:

	lmb.memory.region	 = lmb_memory_region;
	lmb.memory.region_size	 = ARRAY_SIZE(lmb_memory_region);

	lmb.reserved.region	 = lmb_reserved_region;
	lmb.reserved.region_size = ARRAY_SIZE(lmb_reserved_region);

'x >= y-1' is equivalent to 'x > y', so that should be:

	if (rgn->cnt > rgn->region_size)
