BUG: failure at mm/nommu.c:518/add_nommu_region()

[Greg Ungerer]

Hi David,

I am getting this BUG_ON with linux-2.6.30-rc4-git1, that I wasn't
getting with linux-2.6.30-rc3:

This is on a ColdFire non-MMU target (using ROMfs with MTD backing
store).

Could it be related to the recent changes to mm/nommu.c?
I didn't revert those to see yet...

Removing the BUG_ON() I can boot all the way up, not sure if it
is still a valid check.

Regards
Greg
