It is easier than I though to trigger a kernel bug by removing memory that
was never onlined. With CONFIG_DEBUG_VM the memmap is initialized with
garbage, resulting in the detection of a broken zone when removing memory.
Without CONFIG_DEBUG_VM it is less likely - but we could still have
garbage in the memmap.

But the problem is more extreme: When removing memory we could have
- Single memory blocks that fall into no zone (never onlined)
- Single memory blocks that fall into multiple zones (offlined+re-onlined)
- Multiple memory blocks that fall into different zones
Right now, the zones don't get updated properly in these cases.
So let's simply process all zones for now until we can properly handle
this via the reverse of move_pfn_range_to_zone() (which would then be
called something like remove_pfn_range_from_zone()), for example, when
offlining memory or before removing ZONE_DEVICE memory.
To speed things up, only mark applicable zones non-contiguous (and
therefore reduce the zones to recompute) and skip non-intersecting zones
when trying to resize. shrink_zone_span() and shrink_pgdat_span() seem
to be able to cope just fine with pfn ranges they don't actually
contain (but still intersect with).
Don't check for zone_intersects() when triggering set_zone_contiguous()
- we might have resized the zone and the check might no longer hold. For
now, we have to try to recompute any zone (which will be skipped in case
the zone is already contiguous).
Note1: Detecting which memory is still part of a zone is not easy before
removing memory as the detection relies almost completely on pfn_valid()
right now. pfn_online() cannot be used as ZONE_DEVICE memory is never
online. pfn_present() cannot be used as all memory is present once it was
added (but not onlined). We need to rethink/refactor this properly.
Note2: We are safe to call zone_intersects() without locking (as already
done by onlining code in default_zone_for_pfn()), as we are protected by
the memory hotplug lock - just like zone->contiguous.
