We can keep early_mmap_size after boot and then we don't need to allocate
an extra element in the mmap_list. No strong feeling here, though.

With something like this
/*
* Parse early_reserve_mem=nn:align:name
*/
static int __init early_reserve_mem(char *p)
{
phys_addr_t start, size, align;
char *oldp;
int err;
if (!p)
return -EINVAL;
oldp = p;
size = memparse(p, &p);
if (p == oldp)
return -EINVAL;
if (*p != ':')
return -EINVAL;
align = memparse(p+1, &p);
if (*p != ':')
return -EINVAL;
start = memblock_phys_alloc(size, align);
if (!start)
return -ENOMEM;
p++;
err = memmap_add(start, size, p);
if (err) {
memblock_phys_free(start, size);
return err;
}
p += strlen(p);
return *p == '\0' ? 0: -EINVAL;
}
__setup("early_reserve_mem=", early_reserve_mem);
you don't need to touch e820 and it will work the same for all
architectures.
We'd need a better naming, but I couldn't think of something better yet.
