Loop through mtrr chunk_size and gran_size from 1M to 2G to find out
the optimal value so user does not need to add mtrr_chunk_size and
mtrr_gran_size to the kernel command line.
If optimal value is not found, print out all list to help select less
optimal value.
Add mtrr_spare_reg_nr= so user could set 2 instead of 1, if the card
need more entries.
v2: find the one with more spare entries

converting MTRR layout from continous to discrete, some time could run out of
MTRRs. So add gran_sizek to prevent that by dumpping small RAM piece less than
gran_sizek.
previous trimming only can handle highest_pfn from mtrr to end_pfn from e820.
when have more than 4g RAM installed, there will be holes below 4g. so need to
check ram below 4g is coverred well.

some BIOS like to use continus MTRR layout, and X driver can not add
WB entries for graphical cards when 4g or more RAM installed.
the patch will change MTRR to discrete.
mtrr_chunk_size= could be used to have smaller continuous block to hold holes.
default is 256m, could be set according to size of graphics card memory.
mtrr_gran_size= could be used to send smallest mtrr block to avoid run out of MTRRs

Pavel Emelyanov reported that his networking card did not work

"
The commit

x86_32: trim memory by updating e820
broke my e1000 card: on loading driver says that
e1000: probe of 0000:04:03.0 failed with error -5

"
on a 32-bit kernel, base will overflow when try to do PAGE_SHIFT,
and highest_addr will always less 4G.
So use pfn instead of address to avoid the overflow when more than
4g RAM is installed on a 32-bit kernel.
Many thanks to Pavel Emelyanov for reporting and testing it.

when MTRRs are not covering the whole e820 table, we need to trim the
RAM and need to update e820.
reuse some code on 64-bit as well.
here need to add early_get_cap and use it in early_cpu_detect, and move
mtrr_bp_init early.
The code successfully trimmed the memory map on Justin's system:
from:
[ 0.000000] BIOS-e820: 0000000100000000 - 000000022c000000 (usable)
to:
[ 0.000000] modified: 0000000100000000 - 0000000228000000 (usable)
[ 0.000000] modified: 0000000228000000 - 000000022c000000 (reserved)
According to Justin it makes quite a difference:
| When I boot the box without any trimming it acts like a 286 or 386,
| takes about 10 minutes to boot (using raptor disks).

On some machines, buggy BIOSes don't properly setup WB MTRRs to cover all
available RAM, meaning the last few megs (or even gigs) of memory will be
marked uncached. Since Linux tends to allocate from high memory addresses
first, this causes the machine to be unusably slow as soon as the kernel
starts really using memory (i.e. right around init time).
This patch works around the problem by scanning the MTRRs at boot and
figuring out whether the current end_pfn value (setup by early e820 code)
goes beyond the highest WB MTRR range, and if so, trimming it to match. A
fairly obnoxious KERN_WARNING is printed too, letting the user know that
not all of their memory is available due to a likely BIOS bug.
Something similar could be done on i386 if needed, but the boot ordering
would be slightly different, since the MTRR code on i386 depends on the
boot_cpu_data structure being setup.
This patch fixes a bug in the last patch that caused the code to run on
non-Intel machines (AMD machines apparently don't need it and it's untested
on other non-Intel machines, so best keep it off).

This is a janitorish patch to 1) remove private TRUE/FALSE #def's in
favor of using the standard enum from linux/stddef.h and 2) switch the
variables holding those values to type 'bool' (from linux/types.h)
since it both seems more appropriate and allows for potentially better
optimization.
As a truly minor aside, I removed a couple of comments documenting
a 'do_safe' parameter that seems to no longer exist.

Replace all lock_cpu_hotplug/unlock_cpu_hotplug from the kernel and use
get_online_cpus and put_online_cpus instead as it highlights the
refcount semantics in these operations.
The new API guarantees protection against the cpu-hotplug operation, but
it doesn't guarantee serialized access to any of the local data
structures. Hence the changes needs to be reviewed.
In case of pseries_add_processor/pseries_remove_processor, use
cpu_maps_update_begin()/cpu_maps_update_done() as we're modifying the
cpu_present_map there.
