Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 1 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [High] Out-of-bounds write to the statically allocated `reserved_mem_array` due to inflated `total_reserved_mem_cnt` without guaranteed array reallocation.

commit cac834a48f61205ebaa2a6eaf1bc2f735c0a6c46
Author: Wandun Chen <chenwandun1@gmail.com>
of: reserved_mem: save /memreserve/ entries into the reserved_mem array
This commit saves /memreserve/ entries into the reserved_mem array so they
can be excluded from kdump vmcores. Overlapping entries are marked as dumpable
to ensure useful crash analysis data is retained.

[Severity: High]
Could this lead to an out-of-bounds write to the statically allocated
reserved_mem_array during early boot?
fdt_reserved_mem_account_memreserve() increments total_reserved_mem_cnt
by the number of /memreserve/ entries. However, if the device tree lacks
a /reserved-memory node, fdt_scan_reserved_mem_late() returns early and
alloc_reserved_mem_array() is bypassed.
If this happens, the reserved_mem pointer continues to point to the
statically allocated array with a fixed capacity of MAX_RESERVED_REGIONS.
Since the check above compares against the inflated total_reserved_mem_cnt, it
appears we could write past the end of the static array if the device tree
contains 64 or more /memreserve/ entries?
