4.2.8-ckt7 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
---8<------------------------------------------------------------
From: Vinayak Menon <vinmenon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit e53b50c0cbe392c946807abf7d07615a3c588642 upstream.
early_init_dt_alloc_reserved_memory_arch passes end as 0 to
__memblock_alloc_base, when limits are not specified. But
__memblock_alloc_base takes end value of 0 as MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ACCESSIBLE
and limits the end to memblock.current_limit. This results in regions
never being placed in HIGHMEM area, for e.g. CMA.
Let __memblock_alloc_base allocate from anywhere in memory if limits are
not specified.
