SubjectRe: [PATCH 02/14] MIPS: memblock: Surely map BSS kernel memory section
From

Hi Serge,

Quite right - it should. But this was protected against by reserving all
bootmem up to the _end symbol here:
http://elixir.free-electrons.com/linux/v4.15-rc8/source/arch/mips/kernel/setup.c#L388
Which you remove in the next patch in this series. I'm not sure it is
worth disentangling the reserved_end stuff from the next patch to make
this into a single logical change of reserving just .bss rather than
everything below _end.
