Subject: BUG: Bad page state in process swapper pfn:00000

With current mainline, I get an early crash on r8a7791/koelsch:

BUG: Bad page state in process swapper  pfn:00000
page:ee20b000 count:0 mapcount:0 mapping:66756200 index:0x65726566
page flags: 0x74656b63(locked|error|lru|active|owner_priv_1|arch_1|private|writeback|head|swapcache

page dumped because: PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_FREE flag(s) set
bad because of flags:
page flags: 0x212861(locked|lru|active|private|writeback|swapcache|mlocked)

I bisected it to

    ARM: 8025/1: Get rid of meminfo

    memblock is now fully integrated into the kernel and is the prefered
    method for tracking memory. Rather than reinvent the wheel with
    meminfo, migrate to using memblock directly instead of meminfo as
    an intermediate.

As this is a quite intrusive change, it cannot be reverted on top of mainline.

The commit before (1c8c3cf0b5239388e712508a85821f4718f4d889)
does work. Dmesg difference between them:

My tree is dirty due to the r8a7791-specific DEBUG_LL patch.

Any suggestions before I dive deeper into this?

Thanks!
