Subject: xtensa: fix high memory/reserved memory collision
From: Max Filippov <jcmvbkbc@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 6ac5a11dc674bc5016ea716e8082fff61f524dc1 upstream.
Xtensa memory initialization code frees high memory pages without
checking whether they are in the reserved memory regions or not. That
results in invalid value of totalram_pages and duplicate page usage by
CMA and highmem. It produces a bunch of BUGs at startup looking like
this:
BUG: Bad page state in process swapper pfn:70800
page:be60c000 count:0 mapcount:-127 mapping: (null) index:0x1
flags: 0x80000000()

page dumped because: nonzero mapcount
