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.[kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com: fix build]

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.Signed-off-by: Nishanth Aravamudan

This patch prints out the zonelists during boot for manual verification by the
user if the mminit_loglevel is MMINIT_VERIFY or higher.Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman

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.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix printk warnings]

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.Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman
