Hi Toshiki,

There is currently an effort to remove the PageReserved() flag as some
code is using that to detect ZONE_DEVICE. In reviewing those patches
we realized that what many code paths want is to detect online memory.
So instead of a subsection_dev_map add a subsection_online_map. That
way pfn_to_online_page() can reliably avoid ZONE_DEVICE ranges. I
otherwise question the use case for pfn_walkers to return pages for
ZONE_DEVICE pages, I think the skip behavior when pfn_to_online_page()
== false is the right behavior.
