drm: mm: track free areas implicitly
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The idea is to track free holes implicitly by marking the allocation
immediatly preceeding a hole.

To avoid an ugly corner case add a dummy head_node to struct drm_mm
to track the hole that spans to complete allocation area when the
memory manager is empty.

To guarantee that there's always a preceeding/following node (that might
be marked as hole_follows == 1), move the mm->node_list list_head to the
head_node.

The main allocator and fair-lru scan code actually becomes simpler.
Only the debug code slightly suffers because free areas are no longer
explicit.

Also add drm_mm_for_each_node (which will be much more useful when
struct drm_mm_node is embeddable).
