This series enables ZONE_DEVICE support on POWER. The TEST patches are just example usage of this newly enabled zone. Here are some of the logs from the example device driver. This demonstrates how struct pages can be allocated inside the device memory range itself and how usable memory will be less than the total memory mapped in this way.
