Mike Rapoport 0ba9e6edd4 memblock: drop memblock_alloc_base()
The memblock_alloc_base() function tries to allocate a memory up to the
limit specified by its max_addr parameter and panics if the allocation
fails.  Replace its usage with memblock_phys_alloc_range() and make the
callers check the return value and panic in case of error.

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.
