Changelog:
    Don't use REGION_ID, breaks on some platforms
    Don't blindly add PAGE_OFFSET to bugaddr

I ran into this issue while debugging an early boot problem.
The system hit a BUG_ON() but report bug failed to print the
line number and file name. The reason being that the system
was running in real mode and report_bug() searches for
addresses in the PAGE_OFFSET+ region
