From: Andrew Morton Subject: mm-debug-add-tests-validating-architecture-page-table-helpers-fix A warning gets exposed with DEBUG_VIRTUAL due to __pa() on a kernel symbol i.e 'start_kernel' which might be outside the linear map. This happens due to kernel mapping position randomization with KASLR. __pa_symbol() should have been used instead, for accessing the physical address here. On arm64 __pa() does check for linear address with __is_lm_address() and switch accordingly if it is a kernel text symbol.=20 Nevertheless, its much better to use __pa_symbol() here rather than __pa().
