powerpc/pseries/memory-hotplug: Only update DT once per memory DLPAR request
[ Upstream commit
063b8b1251fd069f3740339fca56119d218f11ba ]
The updates to powerpc numa and memory hotplug code now use the
in-kernel LMB array instead of the device tree. This change allows the
pseries memory DLPAR code to only update the device tree once after
successfully handling a DLPAR request.
Prior to the in-kernel LMB array, the numa code looked up the affinity
for memory being added in the device tree, the code now looks this up
in the LMB array. This change means the memory hotplug code can just
update the affinity for an LMB in the LMB array instead of updating
the device tree.
This also provides a savings in kernel memory. When updating the
device tree old properties are never free'ed since there is no
usecount on properties. This behavior leads to a new copy of the
property being allocated every time a LMB is added or removed (i.e. a
request to add 100 LMBs creates 100 new copies of the property). With
this update only a single new property is created when a DLPAR request
completes successfully.
