  memblock: Avoid useless checks in memblock_merge_regions(). (2023-01-31 15:51:56 +0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
memblock: small optimizations

* fix off-by-one in the check whether memblock_add_range() should
  reallocate memory to accommodate newly inserted range
* check only for relevant regions in memblock_merge_regions() rather than
  swipe over the entire array

----------------------------------------------------------------
Peng Zhang (2):
      memblock: Make a boundary tighter in memblock_add_range().
      memblock: Avoid useless checks in memblock_merge_regions().
