The nid will be set to 0 in the second round. When we break while (1), our nid will not exceed max_nid because: while (1) ... if (unlikely(nid >= nm_i->max_nid)) nid = 0; then next_scan_nid is assigned nid, for next round in build_free_nids our nid which is assigned next_scan_nid will also not exceed max_nid. So get_current_nat_page will get the right meta page.
