The unflatten_device_tree() function contains a call to memblock_alloc(). This is a problem because this allocation is done before any of the reserved memory is set aside in paging_init(). This means that there is a possibility for memblock to allocate from any of the memory regions that are supposed to be set aside as reserved. Hence, move the call to paging_init() to be earlier in the init sequence so that the reserved memory regions are set aside before any allocations are done using memblock.
