5c9ffc9c3d mm_init.c: avoid ifdef-inside-macro-expansion
gcc-3.2:

  mm/mm_init.c:77:1: directives may not be used inside a macro argument
  mm/mm_init.c:76:47: unterminated argument list invoking macro "mminit_dprintk"
  mm/mm_init.c: In function `mminit_verify_pageflags_layout':
  mm/mm_init.c:80: `mminit_dprintk' undeclared (first use in this function)
  mm/mm_init.c:80: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
  mm/mm_init.c:80: for each function it appears in.)

ff7ea79cf7 mm: create /sys/kernel/mm
Add a kobject to create /sys/kernel/mm when sysfs is mounted.  The kobject
will exist regardless.  This will allow for the hugepage related sysfs
directories to exist under the mm "subsystem" directory.  Add an ABI file
appropriately.

5e9426abe2 mm: remove mm_init compilation dependency on CONFIG_DEBUG_MEMORY_INIT
Towards the end of putting all core mm initialization in mm_init.c, I
plan on putting the creation of a mm kobject in a function in that file.
However, the file is currently only compiled if CONFIG_DEBUG_MEMORY_INIT
is set. Remove this dependency, but put the code under an #ifdef on the
same config option. This should result in no functional changes.

68ad8df42e mm: print out the zonelists on request for manual verification
This patch prints out the zonelists during boot for manual verification by the
user if the mminit_loglevel is MMINIT_VERIFY or higher.

708614e618 mm: verify the page links and memory model
Print out information on how the page flags are being used if mminit_loglevel
is MMINIT_VERIFY or higher and unconditionally performs sanity checks on the
flags regardless of loglevel.

When the page flags are updated with section, node and zone information, a
check are made to ensure the values can be retrieved correctly.  Finally we
confirm that pfn_to_page and page_to_pfn are the correct inverse functions.

6b74ab97bc mm: add a basic debugging framework for memory initialisation
Boot initialisation is very complex, with significant numbers of
architecture-specific routines, hooks and code ordering.  While significant
amounts of the initialisation is architecture-independent, it trusts the data
received from the architecture layer.  This is a mistake, and has resulted in
a number of difficult-to-diagnose bugs.

This patchset adds some validation and tracing to memory initialisation.  It
also introduces a few basic defensive measures.  The validation code can be
explicitly disabled for embedded systems.

This patch:

Add additional debugging and verification code for memory initialisation.

Once enabled, the verification checks are always run and when required
additional debugging information may be outputted via a mminit_loglevel=
command-line parameter.

The verification code is placed in a new file mm/mm_init.c.  Ideally other mm
initialisation code will be moved here over time.
