Hi,
I git bisect point it out commit that even reverting it would trigger the panic.
So this is a memory corruption problem that a simple git bisect will
not find the correct offending commit.

I managed to understand a little more about the issue:
1 ) early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem is executed first, reserves
[0x0000000005000000-0x00000000052fffff] but doesn't mark as no-map.
2 ) early_init_dt_reserve_memory tries to mark that region as nomap,
but it is already reserved and memblock_overlaps_region and
memblock_is_region_reserved return true, so it fails to mark as nomap.
3 ) kernel uses that memory and crashes

I think we have two options here:
1) Allow early_init_dt_reserve_memory mark nomap memory that is already reserved
2) Make early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem reserve with the flag nomap
if necessary. I don't know if that's possible.

Question MM guys, Mike Rapoport and Andrew Morton:
- Is it possible to make early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem reserve
memory with flags?
- It ok for early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem to mark regions already
reserved as nomap?

Thanks
Lucas
