Subject: mm: memblock: do not enforce current limit for memblock_phys* family
Until commit 92d12f9544b7 ("memblock: refactor internal allocation
functions") the maximal address for memblock allocations was forced to
memblock.current_limit only for the allocation functions returning virtual
address. The changes introduced by that commit moved the limit
enforcement into the allocation core and as a result the allocation
functions returning physical address also started to limit allocations to
memblock.current_limit.
This caused breakage of etnaviv GPU driver:
[ 3.682347] etnaviv etnaviv: bound 130000.gpu (ops gpu_ops)
[ 3.688669] etnaviv etnaviv: bound 134000.gpu (ops gpu_ops)
[ 3.695099] etnaviv etnaviv: bound 2204000.gpu (ops gpu_ops)
[ 3.700800] etnaviv-gpu 130000.gpu: model: GC2000, revision: 5108
[ 3.723013] etnaviv-gpu 130000.gpu: command buffer outside valid
memory window
[ 3.731308] etnaviv-gpu 134000.gpu: model: GC320, revision: 5007
[ 3.752437] etnaviv-gpu 134000.gpu: command buffer outside valid
memory window
[ 3.760583] etnaviv-gpu 2204000.gpu: model: GC355, revision: 1215
[ 3.766766] etnaviv-gpu 2204000.gpu: Ignoring GPU with VG and FE2.0
Restore the behaviour of memblock_phys* family so that these functions will
not enforce memblock.current_limit.
