Mike,

Here was David's explanation of what he thinks is going on (or should be 
going on) from a few days ago:

QUOTE...
I assume that acpi_map()/acpi_unmap() map some firmware blob that is 
provided via firmware/bios/... to us.

should_use_kmap() tells us whether
a) we have a "struct page" and should kmap() that one
b) we don't have a "struct page" and should ioremap.

As it is a blob, the firmware should always reserve that memory region 
via memblock (e.g., memblock_reserve()), such that we either
1) don't create a memmap ("struct page") at all (-> case b) )
2) if we have to create e memmap, we mark the page PG_reserved and
*never* expose it to the buddy (-> case a) )


Are you telling me that in this case we might have a memmap for the HW 
blob that is *not* PG_reserved? In that case it most probably got 
exposed to the buddy where it can happily get allocated/freed.

The latent BUG would be that that blob gets exposed to the system like 
ordinary RAM, and not reserved via memblock early during boot. Assuming 
that blob has a low physical address, with my patch it will get 
allocated/used a lot earlier - which would mean we trigger this latent 
BUG now more easily.
...END_QUOTE

Your most recent patch has added the memblock_reserve(), but it's still 
missing the PG_reserved setting.

Thanks,
George
