[PATCH v3 1/3] vmalloc: Choose a better start address in vm_area_register_early()

From: Kefeng Wang <hidden>
Date: 2021-08-09 09:32:32
Also in: linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: memory management, the rest, vmalloc · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, Linus Torvalds, Uladzislau Rezki

There are some fixed locations in the vmalloc area be reserved
in ARM(see iotable_init()) and ARM64(see map_kernel()), but for
pcpu_page_first_chunk(), it calls vm_area_register_early() and
choose VMALLOC_START as the start address of vmap area which
could be conflicted with above address, then could trigger a
BUG_ON in vm_area_add_early().

Let's choose the end of existing address range in vmlist as the
start address instead of VMALLOC_START to avoid the BUG_ON.
