Now that the DLPAR add/remove flow updates the ibm,dynamic-memory device
tree property each time we add or remove a LMB the work needed to clone
this property can be reduced.

Prior to performing any memory DLPAR operation we now clone the device
tree property once and convert it to cpu format. This copy is then used
to walk through LMBs as we process them and is thrown away when we
are finished. There is no longer a need to convert the entire property to
cpu format and then back to BE every time we update it, we can just parse
it in its native BE format and update the one LMB we need to modify
before updating the property.

This patch removes the BE => cpu conversion step in the clone routine and
creates a drconf_property_to_cpu() routine to make this conversion for the
one time we need to convert the entire property. This then allows us
to remove dlpar_update_drconf_property() since we can now do everything
in dlpar_update_device_tree_lmb().

Hi Nathan,

This sounds like a good cleanup on the face of it.

But even with it applied I still see a boat load of endian errors from sparse
in this file. That worries me, can you please try and fix them.

I think the problem is you're using one type, struct of_drconf_cell, to hold
both BE and LE data, but at different times. That may be OK if you do the
conversions exactly right, but it is highly error prone, and also confuses the
checker, so is best avoided.

So we can either say that of_drconf_cell holds the device tree representation,
in which case it should use __be64/__be32, or we say that it holds the cpu
endian representation, in which case it stays as is.

My preference would be the latter, and we create an accessor which does the
conversion in exactly one place, ie. something like:

void of_property_read_drconf_cell(const struct property *p,
                                 struct of_drconf_cell *result)
{
       struct {
               __be64 base_addr;
               __be32 drc_index;
               __be32 reserved;
               __be32 aa_index;
               __be32 flags;
       } *s = (void *)p->value;

       result->base_addr = be64_to_cpu(s->base_addr);
       result->drc_index = be32_to_cpu(s->base_addr);
       result->reserved = be32_to_cpu(s->reserved);
       result->aa_index = be32_to_cpu(s->aa_index);
       result->flags = be32_to_cpu(s->flags);
}

cheers

I can merge patches 1 and 2 if you like, and leave this one for you to fixup?
Or I can just wait for a v2 of the whole series. Let me know which you'd
prefer.

If you don't mind merging patches 1 and 2 I will send out a new cleanup patch
to fix the issues with patch 3 of the series.
