Good point! Reason of the crash is that the span of MOVABLE_ZONE is
extended to whole node span for future CMA initialization, and,
normal memory is wrongly freed here.

Here goes the fix. Ville, Could you test below patch?
I re-generated the issue on my side and this patch fixed it.

Thanks.

Subject: [PATCH] x86/32/highmem: check if the zone is matched when free
highmem pages on init

If CONFIG_CMA is enabled, it extends the span of the MOVABLE_ZONE
to manage the CMA memory later. And, in this case, the span of the
MOVABLE_ZONE could overlap the other zone's memory. We need to
avoid freeing this overlapped memory here since it would be the
memory of the other zone. Therefore, this patch adds a check
whether the page is indeed on the requested zone or not. Skipped
page will be freed when the memory of the matched zone is freed.
