Commit b92df1de5d28 ("mm: page_alloc: skip over regions of invalid pfns
where possible") optimized the loop in memmap_init_zone(). But it causes
possible panic bug. So Daniel Vacek reverted it later.

But memblock_next_valid_pfn is valid when CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID is
enabled. And as verified by Eugeniu Rosca, arm can benifit from this
commit. So remain the memblock_next_valid_pfn.
It is not dependent on CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID option but on
arm(64) implementation of pfn_valid() function, IIUC. So it should
really be moved from generic source file to arm specific location. I'd
say somewhere close to the pfn_valid() implementation. Such as to
arch/arm{,64}/mm/ init.c-ish?

Hi Daniel
I didn't catch the reason why "It is not dependent on CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID option but on arm(64) implementation of pfn_valid() function"? Can you explain more about it? Thanks

What's your thought if I changed the codes as followed?
in include/linux/memblock.h
#ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID
extern unsigned long memblock_next_valid_pfn(unsigned long pfn);
#else
#define memblock_next_valid_pfn(pfn) (pfn + 1)
#endif

Cheers,
Jia
