    Subject[PATCH 13/14] mm: meminit: Reduce number of times pageblocks are set during initialisation
    Date
    During parallel memory initialisation, ranges are checked for every PFN
    unnecessarily which increases boot times. This patch alters when the
    ranges are checked to reduce the work done for each page frame.
