So I think this does a good job of explaining why we had a problem with
reserved memory to begin with, but I think it would be good to explain
exactly where
> Fixes: 50e63dd8ed92 ("riscv: fix reserved memory setup")
gets things wrong. That being, as far as I can tell, that it violates
the requirement "...must be called before swapper_pg_dir is set up".
It would be good to mention that specifically I think, say:

	riscv establishes 2 virtual mappings:

	- early_pg_dir maps the kernel which allows to discover the system
	  memory
	- swapper_pg_dir installs the final mapping (linear mapping included)

	We used to map the dtb in early_pg_dir using DTB_EARLY_BASE_VA, and this
	mapping was not carried over in swapper_pg_dir. This caused problems
	for reserved memory, as early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem() initialised
	reserved_mem variables with addresses that lie in the early_pg_dir dtb
	mapping. When those addresses are reused with swapper_pg_dir, this
	mapping does not exist and then we trap.
	The previous "fix" was incorrect as early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem()
	must be called before swapper_pg_dir is set up otherwise we could
	allocate in reserved memory defined in the dtb.

	Move the dtb mapping in the fixmap region which is established in
	early_pg_dir and handed over to swapper_pg_dir.

You need this one too:
Fixes: 922b0375fc93 ("riscv: Fix memblock reservation for device tree blob")

As an aside, one thing I noticed while re-working that, would you mind
adding ()s to function names in commit messages? Makes differentiation
between functions and variables etc a lot easier :)

This is probably the least confident R-b I've given to date:

But I did also run this through the test the trigger the initial
problems and it looks good, so:

btw, could you make the email all lowercase if you re-spin, exchange did
what it does to the original report cos it was sent from Thunderbird
rather than mutt.

Thanks for working on this,
Conor.
