Ah, you are right. I forgot that one. Then pfn can be assigned the
zone_start_pfn as the old code. Then the following logic is the same
as the original code, find_smallest_section_pfn()/find_biggest_section_pfn() 
have done the iteration the old for loop was doing.

	unsigned long pfn = zone_start_pfn;	
	if () {
	} else if () {
	} 

	/* The zone has no valid section */
	if (!pfn) {
        	zone->zone_start_pfn = 0;
        	zone->spanned_pages = 0;
	}
