[PATCH 6/8] mm/bootmem_info: stop marking mem_section_usage as MIX_SECTION_INFO

"David Hildenbrand (Arm)" <[email protected]>
Newsgroups org.kernel.vger.sparclinux,org.kernel.vger.linux-kernel,org.kernel.vger.linux-s390,org.kvack.linux-mm,org.ozlabs.lists.linuxppc-dev
Message-ID <[email protected]>
We never free the ms->usage data for boot memory sections (see
section_deactivate()). And to identify whether ms->usage was allocated
from memblock, we simply identify it by looking at PG_reserved.

Consequently, there is no need to mark ms->usage as MIX_SECTION_INFO.
Let's just stop doing that.
