commit 6ac5a11dc674bc5016ea716e8082fff61f524dc1 upstream. Xtensa memory initialization code frees high memory pages without checking whether they are in the reserved memory regions or not. That results in invalid value of totalram_pages and duplicate page usage by CMA and highmem. It produces a bunch of BUGs at startup looking like this: BUG: Bad page state in process swapper pfn:70800 page:be60c000 count:0 mapcount:-127 mapping: (null) index:0x1 flags: 0x80000000() raw: 80000000 00000000 00000001 ffffff80 00000000 be60c014 be60c014 0000000a page dumped because: nonzero mapcount Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper Tainted: G B 4.16.0-rc1-00015-g7928b2cbe55b-dirty #23 Stack: bd839d33 00000000 00000018 ba97b64c a106578c bd839d70 be60c000 00000000 a1378054 bd86a000 00000003 ba97b64c a1066166 bd839da0 be60c000 ffe00000 a1066b58 bd839dc0 be504000 00000000 000002f4 bd838000 00000000 0000001e Call Trace: [<a1065734>] bad_page+0xac/0xd0 [<a106578c>] free_pages_check_bad+0x34/0x4c [<a1066166>] __free_pages_ok+0xae/0x14c [<a1066b58>] __free_pages+0x30/0x64 [<a1365de5>] init_cma_reserved_pageblock+0x35/0x44 [<a13682dc>] cma_init_reserved_areas+0xf4/0x148 [<a10034b8>] do_one_initcall+0x80/0xf8 [<a1361c16>] kernel_init_freeable+0xda/0x13c [<a125b59d>] kernel_init+0x9/0xd0 [<a1004304>] ret_from_kernel_thread+0xc/0x18 Only free high memory pages that are not reserved.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
