Subject: [PATCH -v3 09/14] x86: if kernel .text .data .bss are not marked as E820_RAM, complain and fix
From: Jacob Shin <jacob.shin@....com>
There could be cases where user supplied memmap=exactmap memory
mappings do not mark the region where the kernel .text .data and
.bss reside as E820_RAM, as reported here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/8/14/86
Handle it by complaining, and adding the range back into the e820.
