Interesting. I don't think there are any logical differences between my and
your version, if you have 16 MiB in the first chunk.
Perhaps my changes cause one of the sections to grow or shrink by one
page, leading to a shortage of one page in the bootmem for you?
Do you know where exactly it fails to allocate one page? Is this while mapping
the pages for the rest of RAM? If yes, I guess this failure can be
triggered with
some specific memory configuration with your original version, too.
Thanks!
