Title:
  OMAP Panda does not boot on Linux-linaro 3.2 branch

Status in Linaro Texas Instruments Landing Team:
  Won't Fix
Status in Linaro Linux:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Reported by Andy Green:

  Quite early in boot, it blows a new BUG() in the code around
  iotable_init(), I added some debug and see it's blowing up when trying
  to define io memory in omap_barriers_init().  A bunch of earlier
  machine-defined iotable_inits go OK.

  From Andrey K.:

  
  I haven't dig deep into that, but the rmk's commit 716a3dc20084 description says that
  "Several platforms are now using the memblock_alloc+memblock_free+
  memblock_remove trick to obtain memory which won't be mapped in the
  kernel's page tables.  Most platforms do this (correctly) in the
  ->reserve callback.  However, OMAP has started to call these functions
  outside of this callback, and this is extremely unsafe - memory will
  not be unmapped, and could well be given out after memblock is no
  longer responsible for its management."

  Vanilla v3.2 kernel patched with "ARM: OMAP4: Fix errata i688 with MPU interconnect barriers" passes omap_barriers_init() ok (but crashes later in my setup). But "v3.2 merged with rmk's devel-stable" kernel encounters a BUG() inside the introduced omap_barriers_init()
  (the log is in the original message below). Looks like the "ARM: OMAP4: Fix errata i688 with MPU interconnect barriers" needs to be fixed anyway, but probably there is something in the rmk's devel-stable
  tree that makes this issue to the problem with calling the memblock_alloc+memblock_free+memblock_remove functions outside of ->reserve callback to reveal.
