    ARM64: mm: Restore memblock limit when map_mem finished. · f6bc87c3
    Steve Capper 提交于
    In paging_init the memblock limit is set to restrict any addresses
    returned by early_alloc to fit within the initial direct kernel
    mapping in swapper_pg_dir. This allows map_mem to allocate puds,
    pmds and ptes from the initial direct kernel mapping.
    
    The limit stays low after paging_init() though, meaning any
    bootmem allocations will be from a restricted subset of memory.
    Gigabyte huge pages, for instance, are normally allocated from
    bootmem as their order (18) is too large for the default buddy
    allocator (MAX_ORDER = 11).
    
    This patch restores the memblock limit when map_mem has finished,
    allowing gigabyte huge pages (and other objects) to be allocated
    from all of bootmem.
