Subject: mm/ia64: fix a memory block size bug
I found following definition in include/linux/memory.h, in my IA64
platform, SECTION_SIZE_BITS is equal to 32, and MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE will
be 0.
#define MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE (1 << SECTION_SIZE_BITS)
will equal to 0. This will cause wrong system memory infomation in sysfs.
I think it should be:
#define MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE (1UL << SECTION_SIZE_BITS)
linux-drf:/sys/devices/system/memory # ll
total 0
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 65536 Aug 20 02:35 block_size_bytes
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Aug 20 02:19 memory0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Aug 20 02:35 power
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 65536 Aug 20 02:35 uevent
linux-drf:/sys/devices/system/memory # cat block_size_bytes
0
linux-drf:/sys/devices/system/memory/memory0 # cat *
8000000000000000
cat: node0: Is a directory
cat: node1: Is a directory
cat: node2: Is a directory
cat: node3: Is a directory

8000000000000000

cat: subsystem: Is a directory
And "echo offline > memory0/state" will cause following call trace:
