Subject: [PATCH v5 5/5] memblock: Disable mirror feature if kernelcore is not specified
Date:   Tue, 14 Jun 2022 17:21:56 +0800

From: Ma Wupeng <mawupeng1@huawei.com>

If system have some mirrored memory and mirrored feature is not specified
in boot parameter, the basic mirrored feature will be enabled and this will
lead to the following situations:

- memblock memory allocation prefers mirrored region. This may have some
  unexpected influence on numa affinity.

- contiguous memory will be split into several parts if parts of them
  is mirrored memory via memblock_mark_mirror().

To fix this, variable mirrored_kernelcore will be checked in
memblock_mark_mirror(). Mark mirrored memory with flag MEMBLOCK_MIRROR iff
kernelcore=mirror is added in the kernel parameters.
