[PATCH v4] xen/arm: Skip memory nodes if not enabled

[Leo Yan <leo.yan@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Currently, Xen doesn't check the status property of memory/reserved
memory nodes, which may lead to the following issues:

- If a memory node has a status "disabled" it implies that it should
  not be used. Xen does not handle the status property for the memory
  node and ends up using it.

- If a reserved memory node has a status "disabled", it means that this
  region is no longer reserved and can be used, but the "disabled"
  status is not handled by Xen.

  Xen passes the intact device tree binding of the reserved memory nodes
  to Dom0 and creates a memory node to cover reserved regions. Disabled
  reserved memory nodes are ignored by the Dom0 Linux kernel, thus the
  Dom0 Linux kernel will continue to allocate pages from such a region.

  On the other hand, since the disabled status is not handled by Xen,
  the disabled reserved memory regions are excluded from the page
  management in Xen which results in Xen being unable to obtain the
  corresponding MFN, in the end, Xen reports error like:

  (XEN) arch/arm/p2m.c:2202: d0v0: Failing to acquire the MFN 0x1a02dc

This patch introduces a function device_tree_node_is_available(). If it
detects a memory node is not enabled, Xen will not add the memory region
into the memory lists. In the end, this avoids to generate the memory
node for the disabled memory regions sent to the kernel and the kernel
cannot use the disabled memory nodes any longer.

Since this patch adds checking device node's status in the
device_tree_get_meminfo() function, except it checks for memory nodes
and reserved memory nodes, it also supports status for static memory
and static heap.
