[PATCH 1/3] drivers: memory: clean up section counting

From: Seth Jennings
Date: Wed Dec 02 2015 - 10:07:22 EST


Right now, section_count is calculated in add_memory_block().
However, init_memory_block() increments section_count as well,
which, at first, seems like it would lead to an off-by-one error.
There is no harm done because add_memory_block() immediately overwrites
the mem->section_count, but it is messy.

This commit moves the increment out of the common init_memory_block()
(called by both add_memory_block() and register_new_memory()) and
adds it to register_new_memory().
