[PATCH part2 v2 8/8] x86, numa, acpi, memory-hotplug: Make movable_nodehave higher priority

From: Zhang Yanfei
Date: Sat Oct 12 2013 - 02:11:06 EST


From: Tang Chen <tangchen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

If users specify the original movablecore=nn@ss boot option, the kernel will
arrange [ss, ss+nn) as ZONE_MOVABLE. The kernelcore=nn@ss boot option is similar
except it specifies ZONE_NORMAL ranges.

Now, if users specify "movable_node" in kernel commandline, the kernel will
arrange hotpluggable memory in SRAT as ZONE_MOVABLE. And if users do this, all
the other movablecore=nn@ss and kernelcore=nn@ss options should be ignored.

For those who don't want this, just specify nothing. The kernel will act as
before.
