Hi Andrew,

This would be good to have in .28 IMO.

Thanks,

Subject: Fix __pfn_to_page(pfn) for CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM=y

Fix macro __pfn_to_page(pfn) so that it doesn't evaluate its
argument twice in the CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM=y case, because 'pfn' may
be a result of a funtion call having side effects.

For example, the hibernation code applies pfn_to_page(pfn) to the
result of a function returning the pfn corresponding to the next set
bit in a bitmap and the current bit position is modified on each
call.  This leads to "interesting" failures for CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM=y
due to the current behavior of __pfn_to_page(pfn).
