We introduced memblock_find_dma_reserve() in this commit:
6f2a75369e x86, memblock: Use memblock_memory_size()/memblock_free_memory_size() to get correct dma_reserve
But there's several problems with it:
- The changelog is full of typos and is incomprehensible in general, and
the comments in the code are not much better either.
- The function was inexplicably placed into e820.c, while it has very
little connection to the E820 table: when we call
memblock_find_dma_reserve() then memblock is already set up and we
are not using the E820 table anymore.
- The function is a wrapper around set_dma_reserve(), but changed the 'set'
name to 'find' - actively misleading about its primary purpose, which is
still to set the DMA-reserve value.
- The function is limited to 64-bit systems, but neither the changelog nor
the comments explain why. The change would appear to be relevant to
32-bit systems as well, as the ISA DMA zone is the first 16 MB of RAM.
So address some of these problems:
- Move it into arch/x86/mm/init.c, next to the other zone setup related
functions.
- Clean up the code flow and names of local variables a bit.
- Rename it to memblock_set_dma_reserve()
- Improve the comments.
No change in functionality. Enabling it for 32-bit systems is left
for a separate patch.

So memblock_x86_fill() is another E820 code misnomer:
- nothing in its name tells us that it's part of the E820 subsystem ...
- The 'fill' wording is ambiguous and doesn't tell us whether it's a single
entry or some process - while the _real_ purpose of the function is hidden,
which is to do a complete setup of the (platform independent) memblock regions.
So rename it accordingly, to e820__memblock_setup().
Also translate this incomprehensible and misleading comment:
/*
* EFI may have more than 128 entries
* We are safe to enable resizing, beause memblock_x86_fill()
* is rather later for x86
*/
memblock_allow_resize();
The worst aspect of this comment isn't even the sloppy typos, but that it
casually mentions a '128' number with no explanation, which makes one lead
to the assumption that this is related to the well-known limit of a maximum
of 128 E820 entries passed via legacy bootloaders.
But no, the _real_ meaning of 128 here is that of the memblock subsystem,
which too happens to have a 128 entries limit for very early memblock
regions (which is unrelated to E820), via INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS ...
So change the comment to a more comprehensible version:
/*
* The bootstrap memblock region count maximum is 128 entries
* (INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS), but EFI might pass us more E820 entries
* than that - so allow memblock resizing.
*
* This is safe, because this call happens pretty late during x86 setup,
* so we know about reserved memory regions already. (This is important
* so that memblock resizing does no stomp over reserved areas.)
*/
memblock_allow_resize();

So the 'e820_table_saved' is a bit of a misnomer that hides its real purpose.
At first sight the name suggests that it's some sort save/restore mechanism,
as this is how we typically name such facilities in the kernel.
But that is not so, e820_table_saved is the original firmware version of the
e820 table, not modified by the kernel. This table is displayed in the
/sys/firmware/memmap file, and it's also used by the hibernation code to
calculate a physical memory layout MD5 fingerprint checksum which is
invariant of the kernel.
So rename it to 'e820_table_firmware' and update all the comments to better
describe the main e820 data strutures.
Also rename:
'initial_e820_table_saved' => 'e820_table_firmware_init'
'e820_update_range_saved' => 'e820_update_range_firmware'
... to better match the new nomenclature.
No change in functionality.

The 'e820entry' and 'e820map' names have various annoyances:
- the missing underscore departs from the usual kernel style
and makes the code look weird,
- in the past I kept confusing the 'map' with the 'entry', because
a 'map' is ambiguous in that regard,
- it's not really clear from the 'e820map' that this is a regular
C array.
Rename them to 'struct e820_entry' and 'struct e820_array' accordingly.
( Leave the legacy UAPI header alone but do the rename in the bootparam.h
and e820/types.h file - outside tools relying on these defines should
either adjust their code, or should use the legacy header, or should
create their private copies for the definitions. )

Having tracepoints to the MSR accessors makes them unsuitable for early
microcode loading: think 32-bit before paging is enabled and us chasing
pointers to test whether a tracepoint is enabled or not. Results in a
reliable triple fault.

Add __rdmsr() and __wrmsr() which *only* read and write an MSR with
exception handling. Those are going to be used in early code, like the
microcode loader, which cannot stomach tracing code piggybacking on the
MSR operation.
While at it, get rid of __native_write_msr_notrace().
