[PATCH v2 2/2] boot: fdt: Handle already reserved memory in boot_fdt_reserve_region()

[Sam Protsenko]

The boot_fdt_add_mem_rsv_regions() function can be called twice, e.g.
first time during the board init (as a part of LMB init), and then when
booting the OS with 'booti' command:

    lmb_add_region_flags
    lmb_reserve_flags
    boot_fdt_reserve_region
    boot_fdt_add_mem_rsv_regions
               ^
               |
               +-----------------------+
               | (1)                   | (2)
    lmb_reserve_common        image_setup_linux
    lmb_init                  ...
    initr_lmb                 do_booti
    board_init_r              'booti'

That consequently leads to the attempt of reserving the same memory
areas (described in the 'reserved-memory' dts node) in LMB. The
lmb_add_region_flags() returns -EEXIST error code in such cases, but
boot_fdt_reserve_region() handles all negative error codes as a failure
to reserve fdt memory region, printing corresponding error messages,
which are essentially harmless, but misleading. For example, this is the
output of 'booti' command on E850-96 board:

    => booti $loadaddr - $fdtaddr
    ...
    ERROR: reserving fdt memory region failed
           (addr=bab00000 size=5500000 flags=2)
    ERROR: reserving fdt memory region failed
           (addr=f0000000 size=200000 flags=4)
    ...
    Starting kernel ...

The mentioned false positive error messages are observed starting with
commit 1d9aa4a283da ("lmb: Fix the allocation of overlapping memory
areas with !LMB_NONE"), which removes the check for the already added
memory regions in lmb_add_region_flags(), making it return -1 for
!LMB_NONE cases. Another commit 827dee587b75 ("fdt: lmb: add reserved
regions as no-overwrite") changes flags used for reserving memory in
boot_fdt_add_mem_rsv_regions() from LMB_NONE to LMB_NOOVERWRITE. So
together with the patch mentioned earlier, it makes
lmb_add_region_flags() return -1 when called from
boot_fdt_reserve_region().

Since then, the different patch was implemented, returning -EEXIST error
code in described cases, which is:

   lmb: Return -EEXIST in lmb_add_region_flags() if region already added

Handle -EEXIST error code as a normal (successful) case in
lmb_reserve_flags() and don't print any messages.
