From: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@xxxxxxx> commit a2e9a5afce080226edbf1882d63d99bf32070e9e upstream. Florian and Dave reported [1] a NULL pointer dereference in __reset_isolation_pfn(). While the exact cause is unclear, staring at the code revealed two bugs, which might be related. One bug is that if zone starts in the middle of pageblock, block_page might correspond to different pfn than block_pfn, and then the pfn_valid_within() checks will check different pfn's than those accessed via struct page. This might result in acessing an unitialized page in CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE configs. The other bug is that end_page refers to the first page of next pageblock and not last page of current pageblock. The online and valid check is then wrong and with sections, the while (page < end_page) loop might wander off actual struct page arrays.
