[PATCH 1/5] mm/memblock: truncate memblock if necessary

From: Wanpeng Li
Date: Fri Aug 24 2012 - 10:34:05 EST


From: Gavin Shan <shangw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

While enforcing memory limit on current memblock layout, it is
possible that we don't have to change the current memblock layout.
For example, the enforced limited size is bigger than the maximal
address of memory regions. Also, we don't have to change the memory
layout while the enforced limited size is more than the accumulative
size of all memory regions.

The patch checks them and won't change current memblock layout for
those cases, thus to reduce some overhead.
