[PATCH] mm: skip if required_kernelcore is larger than totalpages

From: Xishi Qiu
Date: Wed Oct 07 2015 - 22:21:29 EST


If kernelcore was not specified, or the kernelcore size is zero
(required_movablecore >= totalpages), or the kernelcore size is larger
than totalpages, there is no ZONE_MOVABLE. We should fill the zone
with both kernel memory and movable memory.
