According to the panic message from James, I guess the ACPI regions are out of the range
[reg.base, reg.base + reg.size] and removed by your above codes. On ARM64, those ACPI
regions have been added into memblock and marked as NOMAP, so I think it should be
easy to adapt my fix to retain the NOMAP regions here
Thanks,
Dennis
