It does look like that's the case - arm_dma_zone_size is used in
arm_bootmem_free(), which is called from bootmem_init() and in turn
paging_init().
So, arm_dma_zone_size needs to be set before paging_init() is called.
I'd actually suggest moving it before:
if (mdesc->restart_mode)
reboot_setup(&mdesc->restart_mode);
so that it's set real early, to avoid any future problems with this.
The earlier these kinds of things are set, the less likely this kind
of bug will happen.
