The symptoms only manifested when it got used in
init_unavailable_range() but that's actually a fix for the sparsemem
implementation of for_each_valid_pfn(), as David H surmised.

Please could the fix be folded into
mm-implement-for_each_valid_pfn-for-config_sparsemem.patch ?

This is what it should look like with the fix:
https://git.infradead.org/?p=users/dwmw2/linux.git;a=commitdiff;h=55bebbb093

If you want to keep the fix separate, then that's the patch that it
fixes. Do you want a commit message? I'll certainly give you a proper
SoB:

Happy to resend the fixed series if it helps; it looks like you've
already basically sorted it though?

Thanks!
