Subject: [PATCH] x86/setup: call early_reserve_memory() earlier
Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2021 11:41:08 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210914094108.22482-1-jgross@suse.com> (raw)

Commit a799c2bd29d19c565 ("x86/setup: Consolidate early memory
reservations") introduced early_reserve_memory() to do all needed
initial memblock_reserve() calls in one function. Unfortunately the
call of early_reserve_memory() is done too late for Xen dom0, as in
some cases a Xen hook called by e820__memory_setup() will need those
memory reservations to have happened already.

Move the call of early_reserve_memory() to the beginning of
setup_arch() in order to avoid such problems.
