[PATCH] arm: Define arch_is_kernel_initmem_freed() for lockdep

From: Jan Kardell
Date: Mon Mar 29 2021 - 13:54:16 EST


This fixes the warning:

WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1994 at kernel/locking/lockdep.c:1119 alloc_netdev_mqs+0xb4/0x3b0

This warning is because the check in static_obj() assumes that all
memory within [_stext, _end] belongs to static objects. The init
section is also part of this range, and freeing it allows the buddy
allocator to allocate memory from it.

To fix this, define arch_is_kernel_initmem_freed() for arm, it will
return 1 if initmem has been freed and the address is in the range
[__init_begin, __init_end], and this function is called by the
static_obj() function in lockdep.

Tested on TI am3352 (Cortex A8).

This change is modelled after commit 7a5da02de8d6eafba995
("locking/lockdep: check for freed initmem in static_obj()") for s390 by
Gerald Schaefer <gerald.schaefer@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
