commit2f5b3514c3upstream. The memory reservation in arch/x86/platform/efi/efi.c depends on at least two command line parameters. Put it back later in the boot process and move efi_memblock_x86_reserve_range() out of early_memory_reserve(). An attempt to fix this was done in8d48bf8206("x86/boot: Pull up cmdline preparation and early param parsing") but that caused other troubles so it got reverted. The bug this is addressing is: Dan reports that Anjaneya Chagam can no longer use the efi=nosoftreserve kernel command line parameter to suppress "soft reservation" behavior. This is due to the fact that the following call-chain happens at boot: early_reserve_memory |-> efi_memblock_x86_reserve_range |-> efi_fake_memmap_early which does if (!efi_soft_reserve_enabled()) return; and that would have set EFI_MEM_NO_SOFT_RESERVE after having parsed "nosoftreserve". However, parse_early_param() gets called *after* it, leading to the boot cmdline not being taken into account.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
