Re: [PATCH] memblock: stop using implicit alignement to SMP_CACHE_BYTES

Mike Rapoport <rppt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> writes:

When a memblock allocation APIs are called with align = 0, the alignment is
implicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES.

Replace all such uses of memblock APIs with the 'align' parameter explicitly
set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES and stop implicit alignment assignment in the
memblock internal allocation functions.

For the case when memblock APIs are used via helper functions, e.g. like
iommu_arena_new_node() in Alpha, the helper functions were detected with
Coccinelle's help and then manually examined and updated where appropriate.

The direct memblock APIs users were updated using the semantic patch below:

The powerpc changes all look fine.

I'm not quite clear on how SMP_CACHE_BYTES is getting included.

I think it's: memblock.h -> mm.h -> mmzone.h -> cache.h

So that's probably fine.
