mm/resource: Move HMM pr_debug() deeper into resource code
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
HMM consumes physical address space for its own use, even
though nothing is mapped or accessible there.  It uses a
special resource description (IORES_DESC_DEVICE_PRIVATE_MEMORY)
to uniquely identify these areas.

When HMM consumes address space, it makes a best guess about
what to consume.  However, it is possible that a future memory
or device hotplug can collide with the reserved area.  In the
case of these conflicts, there is an error message in
register_memory_resource().

Later patches in this series move register_memory_resource()
from using request_resource_conflict() to __request_region().
Unfortunately, __request_region() does not return the conflict
like the previous function did, which makes it impossible to
check for IORES_DESC_DEVICE_PRIVATE_MEMORY in a conflicting
resource.

Instead of warning in register_memory_resource(), move the
check into the core resource code itself (__request_region())
where the conflicting resource _is_ available.  This has the
added bonus of producing a warning in case of HMM conflicts
with devices *or* RAM address space, as opposed to the RAM-
only warnings that were there previously.
