commit 50d7ba36b916 upstream ("arm64: export memblock_reserve()d regions via
/proc/iomem") backported in commit 62289841 in bionic/master, wrongly assumed that memblock_reserve() would not be used to reserve regions that aren't memory. It turns out, this is exactly what early_init_dt_reserve_memory_arch() will do if it finds a reservation
that was also carved out of the memory node.

Fix:

Apply the attached patch and recompile

The fix wad discussed here: https://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg675580.html

How to test:

Boot the patched kernel and check for the above WARNING in dmesg

Regression potential:

The patch didn't make it upstream yet, but the fix is very small and was tested on the lkml.

Proposing for Bionic and Cosmic.
