I write the function description here so you could give your
comments still in this version.

/*
 * Set the allocation direction to bottom-up or top-down.
 */
static inline void memblock_set_bottom_up(bool enable)
{
        memblock.bottom_up = enable;
}


/*
 * Check if the allocation direction is bottom-up or not.
 * if this is true, that said, the boot option "movablenode"
 * has been specified, and memblock will allocate memory
 * just near the kernel image.
 */
static inline bool memblock_bottom_up(void)
{
        return memblock.bottom_up;
}
