What problem does this solve? How does this fit into the stable kernel
rules?

We changed the way we setup memory zones in arm64 in order to cater for
Raspberry Pi 4's weird DMA constraints: ZONE_DMA spans the lower 1GB of memory
and ZONE_DMA32 the rest of the 32bit address space. Since you can't allocate
memory that crosses zone boundaries, this broke crashkernel allocations on big
machines. This series fixes all this by parsing the HW description and checking
for DMA constrained buses. When not found, the unnecessary zone creation is
skipped.
That said, I have no clue whether this falls or not into the stable kernel
rules.
Regards,
Nicolas

What kernel/commit caused this "breakage"?

There is a fix in 5.11. Please consider applying the following commit to
5.10.y:
aed5041ef9a3 of: unittest: Fix build on architectures without
CONFIG_OF_ADDRES

Hi Grep, another commit d78050ee3544 "arm64: Remove
arm64_dma32_phys_limit and its uses" should be involved, thanks.
"Prior to this patch, disabling CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32 leads to CMA
allocation from the whole RAM as arm64_dma32_phys_limit becomes
PHYS_MASK+1." from Catalin, see more from the link

Hi Greg,
There are two more patches about the ZONE_DMA[32] changes, especially
the second one, both them need be backported, thanks.
791ab8b2e3db - arm64: Ignore any DMA offsets in the max_zone_phys()
calculation
2687275a5843 - arm64: Force NO_BLOCK_MAPPINGS if crashkernel reservation
is required

Yes, we tested it, without them, especially the second one, we will
meet crash when using kexec boot, also there is discussion in [2]

Let's inline the link:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected]/
The following 7 patches(we asked from link) has merged into lts5.10(tag:
v5.10.22)
4d7ed9a49b0c mm: Remove examples from enum zone_type comment
8eaef922e938 arm64: mm: Set ZONE_DMA size based on early IORT scan
35ec3d09ff6a arm64: mm: Set ZONE_DMA size based on devicetree's
dma-ranges
a9861e7fa4f8 of: unittest: Add test for of_dma_get_max_cpu_address()
18bf6e998d08 of/address: Introduce of_dma_get_max_cpu_address()
3fbe62ffbb54 arm64: mm: Move zone_dma_bits initialization into
zone_sizes_init()
407b173adfac arm64: mm: Move reserve_crashkernel() into mem_init()
but the patch "arm64: mm: Move reserve_crashkernel() into mem_init()"
has some issue, see the following discussion from Catalin,
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-devicetree/[email protected]/
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/[email protected]/
and yes, we met crash in lts5.10 when kexec boot due to "arm64: mm: Move
reserve_crashkernel() into mem_init()" too, which could be fixed by
commit 2687275a5843 "arm64: Force NO_BLOCK_MAPPINGS if crashkernel
reservation is required", and the commit 791ab8b2e3db "arm64: Ignore any
DMA offsets in the max_zone_phys() calculation" also about DMA set,
So I only asked the two patches(both in v5.11) related ARM64 ZONE_DMA
changes backported into lts5.10.
