The following crash is observed 100% of the time during resume from
the hibernation on a x86 QEMU system.

The commit being fixed introduced a bug in copying the zero bitmap
to safe pages. A temporary bitmap is allocated with PG_ANY flag in
prepare_image() to make a copy of zero bitmap after the unsafe pages
are marked. Freeing this temporary bitmap with PG_UNSAFE_KEEP later
results in an inconsistent state of unsafe pages. Since free bit is
left as is for this temporary bitmap after free, these pages are
treated as unsafe pages when they are allocated again. This results
in incorrect calculation of the number of pages pre-allocated for the
image.
nr_pages = (nr_zero_pages + nr_copy_pages) - nr_highmem - allocated_unsafe_pages;
The allocate_unsafe_pages is estimated to be higher than the actual
which results in running short of pages in safe_pages_list. Hence the
crash is observed in get_buffer() due to NULL pointer access of
safe_pages_list.
Fix this issue by creating the temporary zero bitmap from safe pages
(free bit not set) so that the corresponding free bits can be cleared
while freeing this bitmap.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
