cabc3d3f732505b3ad56009e4a8aba0c7d39a7d7 is the first bad commit
commit cabc3d3f732505b3ad56009e4a8aba0c7d39a7d7
Author: Alexander Kuleshov <kuleshovmail@gmail.com>
Date:   Wed Dec 9 16:31:03 2015 +1100

    mm/memblock.c: use memblock_insert_region() for the empty array
    
    We have the special case for an empty array in memblock_add_range().  At
    the same time we have almost the same functionality in
    memblock_insert_region().  Let's use memblock_insert_region() instead of
    direct initialization.
