arm64: mm: free the initrd reserved memblock in a aligned manner
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
We should free the initrd reserved memblock in an aligned manner,
because the initrd reserves the memblock in an aligned manner
in arm64_memblock_init().
Otherwise there are some fragments in memblock_reserved regions
after free_initrd_mem(). e.g.:
/sys/kernel/debug/memblock # cat reserved
   0: 0x0000000080080000..0x00000000817fafff
   1: 0x0000000083400000..0x0000000083ffffff
   2: 0x0000000090000000..0x000000009000407f
   3: 0x00000000b0000000..0x00000000b000003f
   4: 0x00000000b26184ea..0x00000000b2618fff
The fragments like the ranges from b0000000 to b000003f and
from b26184ea to b2618fff should be freed.

And we can do free_reserved_area() after memblock_free(),
as free_reserved_area() calls __free_pages(), once we've done
that it could be allocated somewhere else,
but memblock and iomem still say this is reserved memory.
