Rework numa_add_memblk() to update the parameter "u64 size"
to "u64 end", this will make it consistent with x86 and
can simplify the code later.

Updates for arch/arm64/mm/numa.c should squash to core NUMA
patches from Ganapat.

Apart from my earlier comment, this is not exactly correct and may
cause confussion. The implementation here defines:

  size == end - start

which is different to struct resource, where:

  resource_size(res) == res->end - res->start + 1

Thus, @end here is the first address outside of memblk.

This is one more argument for keeping @size here.

I agree :)

I'm working on the new version and met the problem of no
definition for numa_add_memblk() and numa_set_distance()
on IA64, numa_set_distance() seems to easy to add one for
IA64, but numa_add_memblk() is not, this will the blocker
for moving functions to common place, what's your opinion
here?

Also I'm thinking to move all the code in arch/arm64/kernel/acpi_numa.c
to the arch/arm64/kernel/acpi.c to make the ACPI code in ARM64
self-contained, what do you think?

Thanks
Hanjun
