Since commit 7fef431be9c9 ("mm/page_alloc: place pages to tail
in __free_pages_core()") the following use after free occurs
intermittently when acpi tables are accessed.

BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in ibft_init+0x134/0xc49
Read of size 4 at addr ffff8880be453004 by task swapper/0/1

ACPI tables mapped via kmap() do not have their mapped pages
reserved and the pages can be "stolen" by the buddy allocator.
Use memblock_reserve() to reserve all the ACPI table pages.

Well, that doesn't work, so more digging ...

OK, fair enough.
