From: Wei Yang <richard.weiyang@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/nobootmem.c: return 0 when start_pfn equals end_pfn When start_pfn equals end_pfn, __free_pages_memory() has no effect and __free_memory_core() will finally return (end_pfn - start_pfn) = 0. This patch returns 0 directly when start_pfn equals end_pfn.
