From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx> online_mem_sections accidentally marks online only the first section in the given range. This is a typo which hasn't been noticed because I haven't tested large 2GB blocks previously. All users of pfn_to_online_page would get confused on the the rest of the pfn range in the block. All we need to fix this is to use iterator (pfn) rather than start_pfn.
