Christophe Leroy 2fc1c63d27 powerpc/highmem: Properly handle fragmented memory
In addition to checking whether a page is reserved before allocating
it to highmem, verify that it is valid memory.

Otherwise the kernel Oopses as below:

  mem auto-init: stack:off, heap alloc:off, heap free:off
  Kernel attempted to read user page (7df58) - exploit attempt? (uid: 0)
  BUG: Unable to handle kernel data access on read at 0x0007df58
  Faulting instruction address: 0xc01c8348
  Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
  BE PAGE_SIZE=4K SMP NR_CPUS=2 P2020RDB-PC

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
