In some platforms (such as arm), high memory is used, then the decrypting filename will cause panic, the reason see commit 569cf1876a32e574ba8a7fb825cd91bafd003882 ("f2fs crypto: allocate buffer for decrypting filename"):
We got dentry pages from high_mem, and its address space directly goes into the decryption path via f2fs_fname_disk_to_usr. But, sg_init_one assumes the address is not from high_mem, so we can get this panic since it doesn't call kmap_high but kunmap_high is triggered at the end. kernel BUG at ../../../../../../kernel/mm/highmem.c:290!
