[PATCH v1 2/4] mm/memory_hotplug: Handle unaligned start and nr_pages in online_pages_blocks()

From: David Hildenbrand
Date: Fri Aug 09 2019 - 08:57:41 EST


Take care of nr_pages not being a power of two and start not being
properly aligned. Essentially, what walk_system_ram_range() could provide
to us. get_order() will round-up in case it's not a power of two.

This should only apply to memory blocks that contain strange memory
resources (especially with holes), not to ordinary DIMMs.
