Hi!

After commit 9caf25f996e8, user for CMA memory should use to check
PageHighmem in order to get proper virtual address of the page. If
someone doesn't use it, it is possible to use wrong virtual address
and it then causes the use of wrong physical address.
CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL would catch this case.
OK, no extra output of current next with CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL=y.
Booting of n900 hangs with just the same error:

save_secure_sram() returns 0000ff02

If it doesn't help, is there a way to test n900 configuration in QEMU?
I doubt that QEMU n900 boots in secure mode but instead shows
the SoC as general purpose SoC. If so, you'd have to patch the
omap3_save_secure_ram_context() to attempt to save secure RAM
context in all cases. If that works then debugging with any
omap3 board like beagleboard in QEMU should work.
Okay, linux-next from today still does not boot on n900. Is it
something new, or was this still not fixed in -next?
Hello,

Still not fixed in -next since I cannot regenerate the error.
Unfortunately, rest of the world can reproduce the error, and it means
linux-next is useless for us.

I'd expect you to drop the relevant tree from linux-next when the
error was reported. Clearly, those patches are unsuitable for 4.15, as
they are broken, so they should not be in linux-next.

Thanks,
									Pavel
