git bisect says this patch is the cause of an ia64 crash early in boot.
Reverting 13ad59df67f19788f6c22985b1a33e466eceb643
from v4.11-rc1 makes it boot again.
The commit messages talks about the "only caller" of page_is_buddy().
But grep shows two call sites:
mm/page_alloc.c:816: if (!page_is_buddy(page, buddy, order))
mm/page_alloc.c:876: if (page_is_buddy(higher_page,
higher_buddy, order + 1)) {
The crash happens due to a bad pointer in free_one_page()
