Subject: Re: [PATCH] [POWERPC] Fix initial lmb add region with a non-zero base
So, like, the other day Kumar Gala mumbled:
> If we add to an empty lmb region with a non-zero base we will not coalesce
> the number of regions done to one. This causes problems on ppc32 for the
s/done/down
> memory region as its assumed to only have one region.
>
> We can fix this be easily specially casing the initial add to just replace
> the dummy region.

> sharing it between powerpc and sparc.
