Subject: [PATCH v2] pseries/drmem: don't cache node id in drmem_lmb struct

From: Scott Cheloha <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2020 11:53:39 -0500

At memory hot-remove time we can retrieve an LMB's nid from its
corresponding memory_block.  There is no need to store the nid
in multiple locations.

Note that lmb_to_memblock() uses find_memory_block() to get the
corresponding memory_block.  As find_memory_block() runs in sub-linear
time this approach is negligibly slower than what we do at present.

In exchange for this lookup at hot-remove time we no longer need to
call memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() during drmem_init() for each LMB.
On powerpc, memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() is a linear search, so this
spares us an O(n^2) initialization during boot.

On systems with many LMBs that initialization overhead is palpable and
disruptive.  For example, on a box with 249854 LMBs we're seeing
drmem_init() take upwards of 30 seconds to complete:

With a patched kernel on the same machine we're no longer seeing the
soft lockup.  drmem_init() now completes in negligible time, even when
the LMB count is large.
