is enough, so simplify has_managed_dma() and make it inline.
That's true on x86, but is it true on all architectures?
There is no document about numa node info for the DMA_ZONE, + Mike
I used 'git grep -w ZONE_DMA arch/'
willy is right. max_zone_pfn can only limit the range of zone, but
can't decide which zone is put on which node. The memory layout is
decided by firmware. I searched commit log to get below commit which
can give a good example.

mm: replace memmap_context by meminit_context
Patch series "mm: fix memory to node bad links in sysfs", v3.
Sometimes, firmware may expose interleaved memory layout like this:
Early memory node ranges
node 1: [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x000000011fffffff]
node 2: [mem 0x0000000120000000-0x000000014fffffff]
node 1: [mem 0x0000000150000000-0x00000001ffffffff]
node 0: [mem 0x0000000200000000-0x000000048fffffff]
node 2: [mem 0x0000000490000000-0x00000007ffffffff]
Oh, it looks strange, but it do occur if firmware report as this way.
Thanks Willy and Baoquan, please ignore the patch.
