ACPI: Change NFIT driver to insert new resource
ACPI 6 defines persistent memory (PMEM) ranges in multiple firmware interfaces, e820, EFI, and ACPI NFIT table. This EFI change, however, leads to hit a bug in the grub bootloader, which treats EFI_PERSISTENT_MEMORY type as regular memory and corrupts stored user data [1]. Therefore, BIOS may set generic reserved type in e820 and EFI to cover PMEM ranges. The kernel can initialize PMEM ranges from ACPI NFIT table alone. This scheme causes a problem in the iomem table, though. On x86, for instance, e820_reserve_resources() initializes top-level entries (iomem_resource.child) from the e820 table at early boot-time. This creates "reserved" entry for a PMEM range, which does not allow region_intersects() to check with PMEM type. Change acpi_nfit_register_region() to call acpi_nfit_insert_resource(), which calls insert_resource() to insert a PMEM entry from NFIT when the iomem table does not have a PMEM entry already. That is, when a PMEM range is marked as reserved type in e820, it inserts "Persistent Memory" entry, which results as follows. + "Persistent Memory" + "reserved" This allows the EINJ driver, which calls region_intersects() to check PMEM ranges, to work continuously even if BIOS sets reserved type (or sets nothing) to PMEM ranges in e820 and EFI.
