We don't allow to offline memory block devices that belong to multiple
numa nodes. Therefore, such devices can never get removed. It is
sufficient to process a single node when removing the memory block.

Remember for each memory block if it belongs to no, a single, or mixed
nodes, so we can use that information to skip unregistering or print a
warning (essentially a safety net to catch BUGs).

Although I am not sure if it can happen, I think it is better to have

if (mem_blk->nid == NUMA_NO_NODE)
	mem_blk->nid = nid;
else if (mem_blk->nid != nid)
	mem_blk->nid = NUMA_NO_NODE - 1;

I do not really like NUMA_NO_NODE - 1 thing. This is yet another invalid
node that is magic. Why should we even care? In other words why is this
patch an improvement?

I mean we can of course go ahead and drop the "NUMA_NO_NODE - 1" thingy
from the patch. A memory block with multiple nodes would (as of now)
only indicate one of the nodes.

Then there is simply no way to WARN_ON_ONCE() in case unexpected things
would happen. (I mean it really shouldn't happen or we have a BUG
somewhere else)

Alternative: Add "bool mixed_nids;" to "struct memory block".

Oh, and to answer that part of the question:

We no longer have to iterate over each pfn of a memory block to be removed.

Yes and that seemed to work reasonably well so far. Sure there is a
potential confusion but platforms with interleaved nodes are rare enough
to somebody to even notice so far.

I do not really see much point to warn here. What can user potentially
do?

That would be certainly possible but do we actually care?

Is it possible that we are overzealous when unregistering syfs files and
we should simply skip the pfn walk even without this change?

Let's hope there are no BUGs related to that and we just didn't catch
them yet because it's barely used :)

We could detect this while testing and see that some other code seems to
do unexpected things (remove such memory blocks although not allowed).

Only if we want to warn. And I am fine with dropping this part.

I assume you mean something like v1 without the warning/"NUMA_NO_NODE -1"?

See what I have right now below.

Subject: [PATCH v2] drivers/base/node.c: Simplify
 unregister_memory_block_under_nodes()

We don't allow to offline memory block devices that belong to multiple
numa nodes. Therefore, such devices can never get removed. It is
sufficient to process a single node when removing the memory block.

Yes. I didn'g get to look closely but you caught the idea. Thanks!
