Allocate space from the top of a region first, then work downward, if an architecture desires this. I think it's too dangerous to do this across the board, because iomem_resource.end is initialized to -1, which is 0xffffffff_ffffffff on 64-bit architectures, and most machines can't address the entire 64-bit physical address space. So this patch is only effective if the architecture defines ARCH_HAS_TOP_DOWN_ALLOC. When we allocate space from a resource, we look for gaps between children of the resource. Previously, we always looked at gaps from the bottom up. For example, given this: [mem 0xbff00000-0xf7ffffff] PCI Bus 0000:00 [mem 0xc0000000-0xdfffffff] PCI Bus 0000:02 we attempted to allocate from the [mem 0xbff00000-0xbfffffff] gap first, then the [mem 0xe0000000-0xf7ffffff] gap. With this patch, if the architecture defines ARCH_HAS_TOP_DOWN_ALLOC, we allocate from [mem 0xe0000000-0xf7ffffff] first.
