This issue is because when calling unset_migratetype_isolate() to unset a
part of CMA memory, it try to access the buddy page to get its status:
if (order >= pageblock_order) {
page_idx = page_to_pfn(page) & ((1 << MAX_ORDER) - 1);
buddy_idx = __find_buddy_index(page_idx, order);
buddy = page + (buddy_idx - page_idx);
if (!is_migrate_isolate_page(buddy)) {
But the begin addr of this part of CMA memory is very close to a part of
memory that is reserved at boot time (not in buddy system). So add a
check before accessing it.
