Subject: [PATCH] mm: Remove unused exact_nid parameter from memmap_alloc()
Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2026 13:51:30 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260914055130.44543-1-kaitao.cheng@linux.dev> (raw)

From: Kaitao Cheng <chengkaitao@kylinos.cn>

Commit ffe55393137c ("mm/sparse: remove sparse buffer pre-allocation
mechanism") removed sparse_buffer_init(), which was the only caller of
memmap_alloc() that passed true for exact_nid.

All remaining callers pass false, leaving the exact-node allocation
branch unreachable. Remove the exact_nid parameter and unconditionally
use memblock_alloc_try_nid_raw().

This has no functional impact.
