Two cleanups that popped up while working on (and discussing) virtio-mem:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/9/19/463
Tested with DIMMs on x86.
As discussed with michal in v1, I'll soon look into removing the use
of PG_reserved during memory onlining completely - most probably
disallowing to offline memory blocks with holes, cleaning up the
onlining+offlining code.
BTW, I remember that ZONE_DEVICE pages are still required to be set
PG_reserved. That has to be sorted out first.
Do they?
Yes, especially KVM code :/
Details please?
Oh, and I think you might be wondering "how can we have RAM without a
memmap in the guest", see
