Hello,
I have to do regression testing again for this issue and the OOM
issue reported by Vivek, so the release of v1.5.6 will be put off
to next week.
Thanks for your patience.

Subject: [PATCH] Exclude small cycle regions wrongly.
In bitmap initialization, if a cycle region is smaller than 8 pages
and its start_pfn is aligned to multiple of 8 pages, it will be
excluded wrongly.
Example case:
pfn_start=0x103ff80, pfn_start_roundup=0x103ff80
pfn_end=0x103ff84, pfn_end_round=0x103ff80
This case doesn't meet any conditions to set bits in
create_1st_bitmap_cyclic() and initialize_2nd_bitmap_cyclic().
We should admit the case where pfn_start is equal to pfn_end_round
like above.
