Daniel Axtens 052e6068be mm: When adding a region, merge with region after as well as before
On x86_64-efi (at least) regions seem to be added from top down. The mm
code will merge a new region with an existing region that comes
immediately before the new region. This allows larger allocations to be
satisfied that would otherwise be the case.

On powerpc-ieee1275, however, regions are added from bottom up. So if
we add 3x 32MB regions, we can still only satisfy a 32MB allocation,
rather than the 96MB allocation we might otherwise be able to satisfy.

  * Define 'post_size' as being bytes lost to the end of an allocation
    due to being given weird sizes from firmware that are not multiples
    of GRUB_MM_ALIGN.

  * Allow merging of regions immediately _after_ existing regions, not
    just before. As with the other approach, we create an allocated
    block to represent the new space and the pass it to grub_free() to
    get the metadata right.

/*
The design of this memory manager.
This is a simple implementation of malloc with a few extensions. These are
the extensions:
- memalign is implemented efficiently.
- multiple regions may be used as free space. They may not be
contiguous.
Regions are managed by a singly linked list, and the meta information is
stored in the beginning of each region. Space after the meta information
is used to allocate memory.
The memory space is used as cells instead of bytes for simplicity. This
is important for some CPUs which may not access multiple bytes at a time
when the first byte is not aligned at a certain boundary (typically,
4-byte or 8-byte). The size of each cell is equal to the size of struct
grub_mm_header, so the header of each allocated/free block fits into one
cell precisely. One cell is 16 bytes on 32-bit platforms and 32 bytes
on 64-bit platforms.
There are two types of blocks: allocated blocks and free blocks.
In allocated blocks, the header of each block has only its size. Note that
this size is based on cells but not on bytes. The header is located right
before the returned pointer, that is, the header resides at the previous
cell.
Free blocks constitutes a ring, using a singly linked list. The first free
block is pointed to by the meta information of a region. The allocator
attempts to pick up the second block instead of the first one. This is
a typical optimization against defragmentation, and makes the
implementation a bit easier.
For safety, both allocated blocks and free ones are marked by magic
numbers. Whenever anything unexpected is detected, GRUB aborts the
operation.
