Vladimir Zapolskiy reports:
commit a7259df76702 ("memblock: make memblock_find_in_range method private")
invokes a kernel panic while running kmemleak on OF platforms with nomaped
regions:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address fff000021e00000
[...]
scan_block+0x64/0x170
scan_gray_list+0xe8/0x17c
kmemleak_scan+0x270/0x514
kmemleak_write+0x34c/0x4ac
Indeed, NOMAP regions don't have linear map entries so an attempt to scan
these areas would fault.
Prevent such faults by excluding NOMAP regions from kmemleak.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
