a7259df76702 ("memblock: make memblock_find_in_range method
private") invokes a kernel panic while running kmemleak on OF platforms
with nomaped regions:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address
fff000021e00000
[...]
scan_block+0x64/0x170
scan_gray_list+0xe8/0x17c
kmemleak_scan+0x270/0x514
kmemleak_write+0x34c/0x4ac
The memory allocated from memblock is registered with kmemleak, but if
it is marked MEMBLOCK_NOMAP it won't have linear map entries so an
attempt to scan such areas will fault.
Ideally, memblock_mark_nomap() would inform kmemleak to ignore
MEMBLOCK_NOMAP memory, but it can be called before kmemleak interfaces
operating on physical addresses can use __va() conversion.
Make sure that functions that mark allocated memory as MEMBLOCK_NOMAP
take care of informing kmemleak to ignore such memory.
