The patch titled Subject: mm, memory_hotplug: fix memmap initialization has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-memory_hotplug-fix-memmap-initialization.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------ From: Michal Hocko mhocko@suse.com Subject: mm, memory_hotplug: fix memmap initialization
Bharata has noticed that onlining a newly added memory doesn't increase the total memory, pointing to f7f99100d8d9 ("mm: stop zeroing memory during allocation in vmemmap") as a culprit. This commit has changed the way how the memory for memmaps is initialized and moves it from the allocation time to the initialization time. This works properly for the early memmap init path.
It doesn't work for the memory hotplug though because we need to mark page as reserved when the sparsemem section is created and later initialize it completely during onlining. memmap_init_zone is called in the early stage of onlining. With the current code it calls __init_single_page and as such it clears up the whole stage and therefore online_pages_range skips those pages.
Fix this by skipping mm_zero_struct_page in __init_single_page for memory hotplug path. This is quite uggly but unifying both early init and memory hotplug init paths is a large project. Make sure we plug the regression at least.
