      [IA64] Fix NUMA configuration issue · 98075d24
      Zoltan Menyhart authored
      There is a NUMA memory configuration issue in 2.6.24:
      
      A 2-node machine of ours has got the following memory layout:
      
      Node 0:	0 - 2 Gbytes
      Node 0:	4 - 8 Gbytes
      Node 1:	8 - 16 Gbytes
      Node 0:	16 - 18 Gbytes
      
      "efi_memmap_init()" merges the three last ranges into one.
      
      "register_active_ranges()" is called as follows:
      
      efi_memmap_walk(register_active_ranges, NULL);
      
      i.e. once for the 4 - 18 Gbytes range. It picks up the node
      number from the start address, and registers all the memory for
      the node #0.
      
      "register_active_ranges()" should be called as follows to
      make sure there is no merged address range at its entry:
      
      efi_memmap_walk(filter_memory, register_active_ranges);
      
      "filter_memory()" is similar to "filter_rsvd_memory()",
      but the reserved memory ranges are not filtered out.
