[PATCH 1/3] memblock, nobootmem: Add memblock_virt_alloc_low()

From: Yinghai Lu
Date: Fri Jan 24 2014 - 14:11:08 EST


The new memblock_virt APIs are used to replaced old bootmem API.

We need to allocate page below 4G for swiotlb.

That should fix regression on Andrew's system that is using swiotlb.
