From: zhong jiang <zhongjiang@xxxxxxxxxx>
when the mailline introduce the commit a96dfddbcc04
("base/memory, hotplug: fix a kernel oops in show_valid_zones()"),
it obtains the valid start and end pfn from the given pfn range.
The valid start pfn can fix the actual issue, but it introduce
another issue. The valid end pfn will may exceed the given end_pfn.
Ahthough the incorrect overflow will not result in actual problem
at present, but I think it need to be fixed.
