Pull memblock updates from Mike Rapoport:
"Fix arm crashes caused by holes in the memory map.
The coordination between freeing of unused memory map, pfn_valid() and
core mm assumptions about validity of the memory map in various ranges
was not designed for complex layouts of the physical memory with a lot
of holes all over the place.
Kefen Wang reported crashes in move_freepages() on a system with the
following memory layout [1]:
node 0: [mem 0x0000000080a00000-0x00000000855fffff]
node 0: [mem 0x0000000086a00000-0x0000000087dfffff]
node 0: [mem 0x000000008bd00000-0x000000008c4fffff]
node 0: [mem 0x000000008e300000-0x000000008ecfffff]
node 0: [mem 0x0000000090d00000-0x00000000bfffffff]
node 0: [mem 0x00000000cc000000-0x00000000dc9fffff]
node 0: [mem 0x00000000de700000-0x00000000de9fffff]
node 0: [mem 0x00000000e0800000-0x00000000e0bfffff]
node 0: [mem 0x00000000f4b00000-0x00000000f6ffffff]
node 0: [mem 0x00000000fda00000-0x00000000ffffefff]
These crashes can be mitigated by enabling CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE on ARM
and essentially turning pfn_valid_within() to pfn_valid() instead of
having it hardwired to 1 on that architecture, but this would require
to keep CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE solely for this purpose.
A cleaner approach is to update ARM's implementation of pfn_valid() to
take into accounting rounding of the freed memory map to pageblock
boundaries and make sure it returns true for PFNs that have memory map
entries even if there is no physical memory backing those PFNs"
