Thanks!

So, we have these large allocations for the memory maps:

that will be always next to the end of each node and so the last several
pageblocks in a node will never be used by the page allocator.
That masks wrong zone=0 links in the pages corresponding to the holes near
each node and the VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!zone_spans_pfn) never triggers.

I'm going to send v3 soon that should take better care of the zone links.
