The dummy entry is introduced in the initial implementation of lmb in commit 7c8c6b9776fb ("powerpc: Merge lmb.c and make MM initialization use it."). As the comment says the empty dummy entry is to simplify the code. /* Create a dummy zero size LMB which will get coalesced away later. * This simplifies the lmb_add() code below... */ While current code is reimplemented by Tejun in commit 784656f9c680 ("memblock: Reimplement memblock_add_region()"). This empty dummy entry seems not benefit the code any more. Let's remove it.
