Subject[PATCH 3.19.y-ckt 062/170] of: alloc anywhere from memblock if range not specified
Date
3.19.8-ckt18 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Vinayak Menon <vinmenon@codeaurora.org>

commit e53b50c0cbe392c946807abf7d07615a3c588642 upstream.

early_init_dt_alloc_reserved_memory_arch passes end as 0 to
__memblock_alloc_base, when limits are not specified. But
__memblock_alloc_base takes end value of 0 as MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ACCESSIBLE
and limits the end to memblock.current_limit. This results in regions
never being placed in HIGHMEM area, for e.g. CMA.
Let __memblock_alloc_base allocate from anywhere in memory if limits are
not specified.
