2018-10-09	s390/mem_detect: replace tprot loop with binary search	Vasily Gorbik	1	-1/+1
	In a situation when other memory detection methods are not available (no SCLP and no z/VM diag260), continuous online memory is assumed. Replacing tprot loop with faster binary search, as only online memory end has to be found.

2018-10-09	s390/mem_detect: use SCLP info for continuous memory detection	Vasily Gorbik	1	-0/+1
	When neither SCLP storage info, nor z/VM diag260 "storage configuration" are available assume a continuous online memory of size specified by SCLP info.

2018-10-09	s390/mem_detect: introduce z/VM specific diag260 call	Vasily Gorbik	1	-0/+1
	In the case when z/VM memory is defined with "define storage config" command, SCLP storage info is not available. Utilize diag260 "storage configuration" call, to get information about z/VM specific guest memory definitions with potential memory holes.

2018-10-09	s390/mem_detect: introduce SCLP storage info	Vasily Gorbik	1	-0/+3
	SCLP storage info allows to detect continuous and non-continuous online memory under LPAR, z/VM and KVM, when standby memory is defined.

2018-10-09	s390/mem_detect: move tprot loop to early boot phase	Vasily Gorbik	1	-0/+77
	Move memory detection to early boot phase. To store online memory regions "struct mem_detect_info" has been introduced together with for_each_mem_detect_block iterator. mem_detect_info is later converted to memblock. Also introduces sclp_early_get_meminfo function to get maximum physical memory and maximum increment number.
