When linux memory is not aligned with page block size and have hole in zone, the 5.4-lts arm kernel might crash in move_freepages() as Kefen Wang reported in [1]. Backport the upstream fix commits by Mike Rapoport [2] to 5.4 can fix this issue. And free_unused_memmap() of arm and arm64 are moved to generic mm/memblock in the below upstream commit, so I applied the first two patches to free_unused_memmap() in arch/arm/mm/init.c.
