[PATCH V5 0/3] mm/memblock: Excluded memory

This all fits linux-next.

The first patch is a fix (not a replacement) to a patch that has already
been put into linux-next. The original patch generates a warning for an
unused variable in case that CONFIG_ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK is not set.
It's now made the way Andrew suggested.

The second patch adds support for exluded memory region handling in
memblock. This is needed by the current s390 development in conjunction
with kdump.
The patch is straightforward and adds some redundancy. This has been
done to clarify that this patch does not intend to change any of
the current memblock API's behaviour.

The third patch does some cleanup and refactoring to memblock. It removes
the redundancies introduced by the patch before. It also is not intended
to change or break any behaviour or API of memblock.

mm/nobootmem: Fix unused variable
mm/memblock: Add support for excluded memory areas
mm/memblock: Cleanup and refactoring after addition of nomap
