It used to be true that we can have system RAM (IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM | IORESOURCE_BUSY) only on the first level in the resource tree. However, this is no longer holds for driver-managed system RAM (i.e., added via dax/kmem and virtio-mem), which gets added on lower levels, for example, inside device containers. IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM is defined as IORESOURCE_MEM | IORESOURCE_SYSRAM and just a special type of IORESOURCE_MEM. The function walk_mem_res() only considers the first level and is used in arch/x86/mm/ioremap.c:__ioremap_check_mem() only. We currently fail to identify System RAM added by dax/kmem and virtio-mem as "IORES_MAP_SYSTEM_RAM", for example, allowing for remapping of such "normal RAM" in __ioremap_caller(). Let's find all IORESOURCE_MEM | IORESOURCE_BUSY resources, making the function behave similar to walk_system_ram_res(). Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210325115326.7826-3-david@redhat.com Fixes: |

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.
