[ Upstream commit 6817c944430d00f71ccaa9c99ff5b0096aeb7873 ] The cause of the problem is as follows: 1. when cat /sys/devices/system/memory/memory0/valid_zones, test_pages_in_a_zone() will be called. 2. test_pages_in_a_zone() finds the zone according to stat_pfn = 0. The smallest pfn of the numa node in the mips architecture is 128, and the page corresponding to the previous 0~127 pfn is not initialized (page->flags is 0xFFFFFFFF) 3. The nid and zonenum obtained using page_zone(pfn_to_page(0)) are out of bounds in the corresponding array, &NODE_DATA(page_to_nid(page))->node_zones[page_zonenum(page)], access to the out-of-bounds zone member variables appear abnormal, resulting in Oops. Therefore, it is necessary to keep the page between 0 and the minimum pfn to prevent Oops from appearing.

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.
