    x86/platform/UV: Add adjustable set memory block size function · f642fb58
    mike.travis@hpe.com authored
    Add a new function to "adjust" the current fixed UV memory block size
    of 2GB so it can be changed to a different physical boundary.  This is
    out of necessity so arch dependent code can accommodate specific BIOS
    requirements which can align these new PMEM modules at less than the
    default boundaries.
    A "set order" type of function was used to insure that the memory block
    size will be a power of two value without requiring a validity check.
    64GB was chosen as the upper limit for memory block size values to
    accommodate upcoming 4PB systems which have 6 more bits of physical
    address space (46 becoming 52).
