In __ioremap() I added this under if(!PageReserved(page)) {...}:
if (phys_addr == 0x40e) {
printk("PAGE %p (pfn=%ld): flags=%lx, count=%d\n",
page,
page_to_pfn(page),
page->flags,
atomic_read(&page->_count));
}
And I get:
[ 1013.864201] PAGE ffff810001000000 (pfn=0): flags=0, count=0
So at least no one is using that page. Still it is not clear why it
doesn't have the reserve flag turned on.
