When enable debug of efi and memblock with 'efi=debug memblock=debug' appended to the kernel command line, the debug message output for earyly_con looks like: [ 0.000000] efi: 0x0000e1050000-0x0000e105ffff [Memory Mapped I/O |RUN| | | | | | | | | | |UC] [ 0.000000] efi: 0x0000e1300000-0x0000e1300fff [Memory Mapped I/O |RUN| | | | | | | | | | |UC] [ 0.000000] efi: 0x0000e8200000-0x0000e827ffff [Memory Mapped I/O |RUN| | | | | | | | | | |UC] [ 0.000000] efi: 0x008000000000-0x008001e7ffff [Runtime Data |RUN| | | | | | | |WB|WT|WC|UC] [ 0.000000] memblock_add: [0x00008000000000-0x00008001e7ffff] flags 0x0 early_init_dt_add_memory_arch+0x54/0x5c [ 0.000000] * ... This patch is trying to fix the above output messed up by memblock_add(), so we can get below debug mesg looks more formally after applied: [ 0.000000] efi: 0x0000e1050000-0x0000e105ffff [Memory Mapped I/O |RUN| | | | | | | | | | |UC] [ 0.000000] efi: 0x0000e1300000-0x0000e1300fff [Memory Mapped I/O |RUN| | | | | | | | | | |UC] [ 0.000000] efi: 0x0000e8200000-0x0000e827ffff [Memory Mapped I/O |RUN| | | | | | | | | | |UC] [ 0.000000] efi: 0x008000000000-0x008001e7ffff [Runtime Data |RUN| | | | | | | |WB|WT|WC|UC]* [ 0.000000] memblock_add: [0x00008000000000-0x00008001e7ffff] flags 0x0 early_init_dt_add_memory_arch+0x54/0x5c ...
