+
+This fix for ARM does not account ARCH_PFN_OFFSET for mem_map as later used by
+page_to_pfn anymore.
+
+The following output was generated with two hacked in printk statements:
+
+printk("before %p vs. %p or %p\n", mem_map, mem_map - offset, mem_map -
+(pgdat->node_start_pfn - ARCH_PFN_OFFSET));
+ if (page_to_pfn(mem_map) != pgdat->node_start_pfn)
+ mem_map -= offset + (pgdat->node_start_pfn - ARCH_PFN_OFFSET);
+printk("after %p\n", mem_map);
+
+Output:
+
+[ 0.000000] before 8861b280 vs. 8861b280 or 8851b280
+[ 0.000000] after 8851b280
+
+As seen in the first line mem_map with subtraction of offset does not equal the
+mem_map after subtraction of ARCH_PFN_OFFSET.
+
+After adding the offset of ARCH_PFN_OFFSET as well to mem_map as the
+previously calculated offset is zero for the named platform it is able to boot
+4.4 and 4.9-rc7 again.
