  commit 50d7ba36b916 upstream ("arm64: export memblock_reserve()d regions via
  /proc/iomem") backported in commit 62289841 in bionic/master, wrongly assumed 
that memblock_reserve() would not be used to reserve regions that aren't 
memory. It turns out, this is exactly what early_init_dt_reserve_memory_arch() 
will do if it finds a reservation
  that was also carved out of the memory node.

  Fix:

  Apply the attached patch and recompile

  The fix wad discussed here: https://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-
  kernel/msg675580.html

  How to test:

  Boot the patched kernel and check for the above WARNING in dmesg

  Regression potential:

  The patch didn't make it upstream yet, but the fix is very small and
  was tested on the lkml.

  Proposing for Bionic and Cosmic.
