Subject[PATCH v1] mm: initialize struct page for reserved pages in ZONE_DEVICE
Date
Reading /proc/kpageflags for pfns allocated by pmem namespace triggers
kernel panic with a message like "BUG: unable to handle kernel paging
request at fffffffffffffffe".

The first few pages (controlled by altmap passed to memmap_init_zone())
in the ZONE_DEVICE can skip struct page initialization, which causes
the reported issue.

This patch simply adds some initialization code for them.

Fixes: 4b94ffdc4163 ("x86, mm: introduce vmem_altmap to augment vmemmap_populate()")
