Subject: Re: [PATCH] powerpc/drmem: cache LMBs in xarray to accelerate lookup

Hi Scott, I've owed you a follow-up on this for a couple weeks, sorry.

Beyond the issue of whether to remove the drmem_info->lmbs array, there
are some other things to address.

Need identifiers for the function arguments here. checkpatch warns about
this. Also drc_index conventionally is handled as u32 in this code.

This is called only from __init functions, so it should be __init as well.

Failing to record an lmb in the caches shouldn't be cause for silently
aborting this initialization. Future lookups against the caches (should
the system even boot) may fail, but the drmem_lmbs will still be
initialized correctly.

I'd say just ignore (or perhaps log once) xa_store() failures as long as
this code only runs at boot.

The changes to hot_add_drconf_scn_to_nid() and get_lmb_range() look
correct to me.
