CVE-2023-52506
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

LoongArch: Set all reserved memblocks on Node#0 at initialization

After commit 61167ad5fecdea ("mm: pass nid to reserve_bootmem_region()")
we get a panic if DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is enabled:

The reason is early memblock_reserve() in memblock_init() set node id to
MAX_NUMNODES, making NODE_DATA(nid) a NULL dereference in the call chain
reserve_bootmem_region() -> init_reserved_page(). After memblock_init(),
those late calls of memblock_reserve() operate on subregions of memblock
.memory regions. As a result, these reserved regions will be set to the
correct node at the first iteration of memmap_init_reserved_pages().

So set all reserved memblocks on Node#0 at initialization can avoid this
panic.
