riscv establishes 2 virtual mappings: - early_pg_dir maps the kernel which allows to discover the system memory - swapper_pg_dir installs the final mapping (linear mapping included) We used to map the dtb in early_pg_dir using DTB_EARLY_BASE_VA, and this mapping was not carried over in swapper_pg_dir. It happens that early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem() must be called before swapper_pg_dir is setup otherwise we could allocate reserved memory defined in the dtb. And this function initializes reserved_mem variable with addresses that lie in the early_pg_dir dtb mapping: when those addresses are reused with swapper_pg_dir, this mapping does not exist and then we trap. The previous "fix" was incorrect as early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem() must be called before swapper_pg_dir is set up otherwise we could allocate in reserved memory defined in the dtb. So move the dtb mapping in the fixmap region which is established in early_pg_dir and handed over to swapper_pg_dir.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
