Right now, ZONE_DEVICE memory is always set PG_reserved. We want to
change that.
KVM has this weird use case that you can map anything from /dev/mem
into the guest. pfn_valid() is not a reliable check whether the memmap
was initialized and can be touched. pfn_to_online_page() makes sure
that we have an initialized memmap (and don't have ZONE_DEVICE memory).
Rewrite kvm_is_reserved_pfn() to make sure the function produces the
same result once we stop setting ZONE_DEVICE pages PG_reserved.
