Subject: [PATCH] pseries/drmem: update LMBs after LPM

After a LPM, the device tree node ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory may be
updated by the hypervisor in the case the NUMA topology of the LPAR's
memory is updated.

This is caught by the kernel, but the memory's node is updated because
there is no way to move a memory block between nodes.

If later a memory block is added or removed, drmem_update_dt() is called
and it is overwriting the DT node to match the added or removed LMB. But
the LMB's associativity node has not been updated after the DT node update
and thus the node is overwritten by the Linux's topology instead of the
hypervisor one.

Introduce a hook called when the ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node is
updated to force an update of the LMB's associativity.

Cc: Tyrel Datwyler <[email protected]>

Change since V1:
- Take Tyrel's idea to rely on OF_RECONFIG_UPDATE_PROPERTY instead of
introducing a new hook mechanism.

Michael, this is a v2 despite the mail's subject, sorry for the mess.

Pretty much a self nit on myself since I just copied the device node name field
from your initial patch into my suggested code block.

It used to be that dn->full_name was intended to store the full device-tree path
name of the device node ane dn->name simply the base name. These days the values
of both name fields are simply the basename for pseries. Regardless,
rd->dn->name is technically correct and shorter.
