commit f2f29da9f0d4367f6ff35e0d9d021257bb53e273 upstream.
While debugging kexec/hibernation hangs and crashes, it turned out that
the current implementation of e820__register_nosave_regions() suffers from
multiple serious issues:
- The end of last region is tracked by PFN, causing it to find holes
that aren't there if two consecutive subpage regions are present
- The nosave PFN ranges derived from holes are rounded out (instead of
rounded in) which makes it inconsistent with how explicitly reserved
regions are handled
Fix this by:
- Treating reserved regions as if they were holes, to ensure consistent
handling (rounding out nosave PFN ranges is more correct as the
kernel does not use partial pages)
- Tracking the end of the last RAM region by address instead of pages
to detect holes more precisely
These bugs appear to have been introduced about ~18 years ago with the very
first version of e820_mark_nosave_regions(), and its flawed assumptions were
carried forward uninterrupted through various waves of rewrites and renames.

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.
