The following BUG_ON() crash was reported on QEMU/i386: kernel BUG at arch/x86/mm/physaddr.c:79! Call Trace: phys_mem_access_prot_allowed mmap_mem ? mmap_region mmap_region do_mmap vm_mmap_pgoff SyS_mmap_pgoff do_int80_syscall_32 entry_INT80_32 after commit: edfe63ec ("x86/mtrr: Fix Xorg crashes in Qemu sessions") PAT is now set to disabled state when MTRRs are disabled. Thus, reactivating the __pa(high_memory) check in phys_mem_access_prot_allowed(). When CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL is set, __pa() calls __phys_addr(), which in turn calls slow_virt_to_phys() for 'high_memory'. Because 'high_memory' is set to (the max direct mapped virt addr + 1), it is not a valid virtual address. Hence, slow_virt_to_phys() returns 0 and hit the BUG_ON. Using __pa_nodebug() instead of __pa() will fix this BUG_ON. However, this code block, originally written for Pentiums and earlier, is no longer adequate since a 32-bit Xen guest has MTRRs disabled and supports ZONE_HIGHMEM. In this setup, this code sets UC attribute for accessing RAM in high memory range. Delete this code block as it has been unused for a long time.
