Per suggestion from Xishi Qiu, I would like to add below comment in code and repost
Could I carry with your Reviewed-by line?

/* In case booting with numa=off and only using part of system ram
* ie. mem=nn[kMG] or in kdump kernel, numa_meminfo may not include all the
* memblock.reserved memory because trim_snb_memory() reserves specific pages
* for Sandy Bridge graphics. */

Thanks
