[PATCH 2/3] x86/mm: if memblock size is adjusted, update the cached value

From: Gregory Price
Date: Tue Oct 08 2024 - 10:01:31 EST


When parsing CFMWS, we need to know the currently registered memory
block size to avoid accidentally adjusting the size upward. Querying
the size causes it to be cached in a static global. Update the static
global if the value is subsequently updated.

Print a warning that this has occurred for debugging purposes if
the memory block size is changed at an unexpected time (post-init).
