Linux kernel source tree
The current max_pfn equals to zero. In this case, it causes user cannot
get some page information through /proc filesystem such as kpagecount.
The following message is displayed by stress-ng test suite with command
"stress-ng --verbose --physpage 1 -t 1".
# stress-ng --verbose --physpage 1 -t 1
stress-ng: error: [1691] physpage: cannot read page count for address 0x134ac000 in /proc/kpagecount, errno=22 (Invalid argument)
stress-ng: error: [1691] physpage: cannot read page count for address 0x7ffff207c3a8 in /proc/kpagecount, errno=22 (Invalid argument)
stress-ng: error: [1691] physpage: cannot read page count for address 0x134b0000 in /proc/kpagecount, errno=22 (Invalid argument)
...
After applying this patch, the kernel can pass the test.
# stress-ng --verbose --physpage 1 -t 1
stress-ng: debug: [1701] physpage: [1701] started (instance 0 on CPU 3)
stress-ng: debug: [1701] physpage: [1701] exited (instance 0 on CPU 3)
stress-ng: debug: [1700] physpage: [1701] terminated (success)

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 reStructuredText 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.
