This patch addresses a couple of related problems: 1) The kernel may reside in physical memory outside of the ranges set by plat_mem_setup(). If this is the case, init mem cannot be reused as it resides outside of the range of pages that the kernel memory allocators control. 2) initrd images might be loaded in physical memory outside of the ranges set by plat_mem_setup(). The memory likewise cannot be reused. The patch doesn't handle this specific case, but the infrastructure is useful for future patches that do. The crux of the problem is that there are memory regions that need be memory_present(), but that cannot be free_bootmem() at the time of arch_mem_init(). We create a new type of memory (BOOT_MEM_INIT_RAM) for use with add_memory_region(). Then arch_mem_init() adds the init mem with this type if the init mem is not already covered by existing ranges. When memory is being freed into the bootmem allocator, we skip the BOOT_MEM_INIT_RAM ranges so they are not clobbered, but we do signal them as memory_present(). This way when they are later freed, the necessary memory manager structures have initialized and the Sparse allocater is prevented from crashing. The Octeon specific code that handled this case is removed, because the new general purpose code handles the case.
