mm: speedup in __early_pfn_to_nid
When booting on a large memory system, the kernel spends considerable time in memmap_init_zone() setting up memory zones. Analysis shows significant time spent in __early_pfn_to_nid(). The routine memmap_init_zone() checks each PFN to verify the nid is valid. __early_pfn_to_nid() sequentially scans the list of pfn ranges to find the right range and returns the nid. This does not scale well. On a 4 TB (single rack) system there are 308 memory ranges to scan. The higher the PFN the more time spent sequentially spinning through memory ranges. Since memmap_init_zone() increments pfn, it will almost always be looking for the same range as the previous pfn, so check that range first. If it is in the same range, return that nid. If not, scan the list as before. A 4 TB (single rack) UV1 system takes 512 seconds to get through the zone code. This performance optimization reduces the time by 189 seconds, a 36% improvement. A 2 TB (single rack) UV2 system goes from 212.7 seconds to 99.8 seconds, a 112.9 second (53%) reduction.
