x86-32, NUMA: Fix boot regression caused by NUMA init unification on highmem machines
During 32/64 NUMA init unification, commit 797390d855 ("x86-32, NUMA: use sparse_memory_present_with_active_regions()") made 32bit mm init call memory_present() automatically from active_regions instead of leaving it to each NUMA init path. This commit description is inaccurate - memory_present() calls aren't the same for flat and numaq. After the commit, memory_present() is only called for the intersection of e820 and NUMA layout. Before, on flatmem, memory_present() would be called from 0 to max_pfn. After, it would be called only on the areas that e820 indicates to be populated. This is how x86_64 works and should be okay as memmap is allowed to contain holes; however, x86_32 DISCONTIGMEM is missing early_pfn_valid(), which makes memmap_init_zone() assume that memmap doesn't contain any hole. This leads to the following oops if e820 map contains holes as it often does on machine with near or more 4GiB of memory by calling pfn_to_page() on a pfn which isn't mapped to a NUMA node, a reported by Conny Seidel: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 000012b0 IP: [<c1aa13ce>] memmap_init_zone+0x6c/0xf2 *pdpt =3D 0000000000000000 *pde =3D f000eef3f000ee00 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP last sysfs file: Modules linked in: Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.39-rc5-00164-g797390d #1 To Be Filled By O.E.M.
