Subject: [PATCH v3, part4 00/39] Simplify mem_init() implementations and kill num_physpages

Hi all,
	Sorry for my mistake that my previous patch series has been screwed up.
So I regenerate a third version and also set up a git tree at:
	git://github.com/jiangliu/linux.git mem_init
	Any help to review and test are welcomed!

The original goal of this patchset is to fix the bug reported by
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53501
Now it has also been expanded to reduce common code used by memory
initializion.

This is the last part, previous three patch sets could be accessed at:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=136289696323825&w=2
http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=136290291524901&w=2
http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=136345342831592&w=2

This patchset applies to
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mhocko/mm.git since-3.8

Patch 1-7: 
	1) add comments for global variables exported by vmlinux.lds
	2) normalize global variables exported by vmlinux.lds
Patch 8:
	Introduce helper functions mem_init_print_info() and
	get_num_physpages()
Patch 9:
	Avoid using num_physpages at runtime
Patch 10-38:
	1) Simplify mem_init() by using mem_init_print_info()
	2) Prepare fore kill global variable num_physpages
Patch 39:
	Kill global variable num_physpages

With all patches applied, mem_init(), free_initmem(), free_initrd_mem()
could be as simple as below. This patch series has reduced about 1.2K
lines of code in total.

#ifndef CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM
void __init
mem_init(void)
{
	max_mapnr = max_low_pfn;
	free_all_bootmem();
	high_memory = (void *) __va(max_low_pfn * PAGE_SIZE);

	mem_init_print_info(NULL);
}
#endif /* CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM */

void
free_initmem(void)
{
	free_initmem_default(-1);
}

#ifdef CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD
void
free_initrd_mem(unsigned long start, unsigned long end)
{
	free_reserved_area(start, end, -1, "initrd");
}
#endif

Due to hardware resource limitations, I have only tested this on x86_64.
And the messages reported are:
Previous log message:
Memory: 7745676k/8910848k available (6934k kernel code, 836024k absent, 329148k reserved, 6343k data, 1012k init)
Current log message:
Memory: 7744624K/8074824K available (6969K kernel code, 1011K data, 2828K rodata, 1016K init, 9640K bss, 330200K reserved)

Any help to review or test these patch series are welcomed!

Regards!
Gerry
