[PATCH 13/25] lmb: Add debug markers at the end of the array
Since we allocate one more than needed, why not do a bit of sanity checking here to ensure we don't walk past the end of the array ?

[PATCH 17/25] lmb: split lmb_find_base() out of __lmb_alloc_base()
This will be used by the array resize code and might prove useful to some arch code as well at which point it can be made non-static.

[PATCH 18/25] lmb: Move functions around into a more sensible order
Some shuffling is needed for doing array resize so we may as well put some sense into the ordering of the functions in the whole lmb.c file. No code change. Added some comments.

[PATCH 24/25] lmb: Make lmb_alloc_try_nid() fallback to LMB_ALLOC_ANYWHERE
lmb_alloc_nid() used to fallback to allocating anywhere by using lmb_alloc() as a fallback. However, some of my previous patches limit lmb_alloc() to the region covered by LMB_ALLOC_ACCESSIBLE which is not quite what we want for lmb_alloc_try_nid(). So we fix it by explicitely using LMB_ALLOC_ANYWHERE. Not ... 10 May 2010 06:35
