Subject: ARM: 8636/1: Cleanup sanity_check_meminfo

From: Laura Abbott <labbott@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 374d446d25d6271ee615952a3b7f123ba4983c35 upstream.

The logic for sanity_check_meminfo has become difficult to
follow. Clean up the code so it's more obvious what the code
is actually trying to do. Additionally, meminfo is now removed
so rename the function to better describe its purpose.
