+Subject: [PATCH] mips: kernel: fix detect_memory_region() function
+
+1. Do not use memcmp() on unallocated memory, as the new introduced
+   fortify dynamic object size check[1] will report unexpected result.
+2. Use a fixed pattern instead of a random function pointer as the
+   magic value.
+3. Flip magic value and double check it.
+
+[1] 439a1bcac648 ("fortify: Use __builtin_dynamic_object_size() when available")
