    arm64: mm: Fix freeing of the wrong memmap entries with !SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP · b9bcc919
    Dave P Martin 提交于
    The memmap freeing code in free_unused_memmap() computes the end of
    each memblock by adding the memblock size onto the base.  However,
    if SPARSEMEM is enabled then the value (start) used for the base
    may already have been rounded downwards to work out which memmap
    entries to free after the previous memblock.
    
    This may cause memmap entries that are in use to get freed.
    
    In general, you're not likely to hit this problem unless there
    are at least 2 memblocks and one of them is not aligned to a
    sparsemem section boundary.  Note that carve-outs can increase
    the number of memblocks by splitting the regions listed in the
    device tree.
    
    This problem doesn't occur with SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, because the
    vmemmap code deals with freeing the unused regions of the memmap
    instead of requiring the arch code to do it.
    
    This patch gets the memblock base out of the memblock directly when
    computing the block end address to ensure the correct value is used.
