Subject: Request backporting 374d446d25d6 and 985626564eed in stable 4.9

Hello all,

We are looking at using Linux 4.9 in Xen automatic testing and noticed 
regression when booting is as Xen Dom0 on some boards (e.g Arndale).

After investigation, the following 2 patches resolved the booting 
regression:
      - 374d446d25d6271ee615952a3b7f123ba4983c35 "ARM: 8636/1: Cleanup 
sanity_check_meminfo"
      - 985626564eedc470ce2866e53938303368ad41b7 "ARM: 8637/1: Adjust 
memory boundaries after reservations"

Would it be possible to backport them on Linux 4.9 stable?

Cheers,
