Subject: mm: free_area_init: allow defining max_zone_pfn in descending order
Some architectures (e.g. ARC) have the ZONE_HIGHMEM zone below the
ZONE_NORMAL. Allowing free_area_init() parse max_zone_pfn array even it
is sorted in descending order allows using free_area_init() on such
architectures.
Add top -> down traversal of max_zone_pfn array in free_area_init() and
use the latter in ARC node/zone initialization.
