Thanks for reviewing, Tom.

Boris suggested this. Both is fine to me. If there is indeed a tiny
preference, I would choose SD_SIZE. It's going a bit far, but not too
far.

Exactly, I explained in another thread replying to you, it could be
ignored.

OK, so you suggest they are like below, right?

static bool __ref __memremap_is_setup_data(resource_size_t phys_addr,
bool early)
{
......
}

static bool memremap_is_setup_data(resource_size_t phys_addr)
{
return __memremap_is_setup_data(phys_addr, false);
}

static bool __init early_memremap_is_setup_data(resource_size_t phys_addr)
{
return __memremap_is_setup_data(phys_addr, true);
}

I can make v3 if we all agree on this.
