PAGE_SECTION_MASK?

AFAICS, nid can be -1 in the hotplug callbacks when there is a new
section added to a node that already has memory, and then the
allocation will fall back to numa_node_id().

So I think we either need to trust start_pfn has valid mem map backing
it (ARM has no memory hotplug support) and use pfn_to_nid(start_pfn),
or find another way to the right node, no?

If we don't bother to align the pfn on the first iteration, I don't
think we should for subsequent iterations.  init_section_page_cgroup()
has to be able to cope anyway.  How about

	pfn += PAGES_PER_SECTION

instead?
