Yeah, it can be.

In my implementation of kdump, the usable memory for crash dump
kernel will be allocated within memblock.memory after ACPI-related
regions have been mapped. "linux,usable-memory-range" indicates
this exact memory range.
On crash dump kernel, my fdt_enforce_memory_region() in arm64_memblock_init()
will exclude all the other regions from memblock.memory.
So the kernel (with acpi=on) won't recognize ACPI-regions as
normal memory, and map them by ioremap().
I thought that it was safe, but actually not due to unaligned accesses.
As you suggested, we will probably be able to do the same thing of
Chen's solution in fdt_enforce_memory_region().
