I notice that code has been merged into mainline kernel without fix,
maybe fengguang's mail was missed.

I review the code, dma_contiguous_reserve() is called before initmem_init(),
so the variable high_memory is not initialized and calculated by
__pa(high_memory),
in x86 arch high_memory is initialized after dma_contiguous_reserve(), while
in arm arch high_memory is initialized before dma_contiguous_reserve(),
I think that is the reason which causes the BUG in x86.

However, I'm not familiar with system init sequence, so I send this
notice mail rather than a patch :-(
