This patch fixes two issues in deferred_init_memmap
=====
In deferred_init_memmap() where all deferred struct pages are initialized
we have a check like this:
if (page->flags) {
VM_BUG_ON(page_zone(page) != zone);
goto free_range;
}
This way we are checking if the current deferred page has already been
initialized. It works, because memory for struct pages has been zeroed, and
the only way flags are not zero if it went through __init_single_page()
before. But, once we change the current behavior and won't zero the memory
in memblock allocator, we cannot trust anything inside "struct page"es
until they are initialized. This patch fixes this.
The deferred_init_memmap() is re-written to loop through only free memory
ranges provided by memblock.
=====
This patch fixes another existing issue on systems that have holes in
zones i.e CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE is defined.
In for_each_mem_pfn_range() we have code like this:
if (!pfn_valid_within(pfn)
goto free_range;
Note: 'page' is not set to NULL and is not incremented but 'pfn' advances.
Thus means if deferred struct pages are enabled on systems with these kind
of holes, linux would get memory corruptions. I have fixed this issue by
defining a new macro that performs all the necessary operations when we
free the current set of pages.
