Subject: [PATCH v2] ARC: Use max_high_pfn as a HIGHMEM zone border
Date: Tue, 27 Apr 2021 15:13:54 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210427121354.3620-1-isaev@synopsys.com> (raw)

Commit 4af22ded0ecf ("arc: fix memory initialization for systems
with two memory banks") fixed highmem, but for the PAE case it causes
bug messages:

BUG: Bad page state in process swapper  pfn:80000
page:(ptrval) refcount:0 mapcount:1 mapping:00000000 index:0x0 pfn:0x80000
flags: 0x0()

raw: 00000000
page dumped because: nonzero mapcount
Modules linked in:
CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper Not tainted 5.12.0-rc5-00003-g1e43c377a79f #1

Stack Trace:
  arc_unwind_core+0xe8/0x118
Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint

This is because the fix expects highmem to be always less than
lowmem and uses min_low_pfn as an upper zone border for highmem.

max_high_pfn should be ok for both highmem and highmem+PAE cases.
