Uninitialized memmaps contain garbage and in the worst case trigger
kernel BUGs, especially with CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING. They should not get
touched.
For example, when not onlining a memory block that is spanned by a zone
and reading /proc/pagetypeinfo with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGFLAGS and
CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING, we can trigger a kernel BUG:
:/# echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory40/online
:/# echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory42/online
:/# cat /proc/pagetypeinfo > test.file
page:
fffff2c585200000 is uninitialized and poisoned
raw:
ffffffffffffffff ffffffffffffffff ffffffffffffffff ffffffffffffffff
raw:
ffffffffffffffff ffffffffffffffff ffffffffffffffff ffffffffffffffff
page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PagePoisoned(p))
There is not page extension available.
------------[ cut here ]------------
kernel BUG at include/linux/mm.h:1107!
invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI
Please note that this change does not affect ZONE_DEVICE, because
pagetypeinfo_showmixedcount_print() is called from
mm/vmstat.c:pagetypeinfo_showmixedcount() only for populated zones, and
ZONE_DEVICE is never populated (zone->present_pages always 0).
