Subject: mm/pagewalk.c: fix walk_page_range() access of wrong PTEs

When walk_page_range walk a memory map's page tables, it'll skip VM_PFNMAP
area, then variable 'next' will to assign to vma->vm_end, it maybe larger
than 'end'.  In next loop, 'addr' will be larger than 'next'.  Then in
/proc/XXXX/pagemap file reading procedure, the 'addr' will growing forever
in pagemap_pte_range, pte_to_pagemap_entry will access wrong pte.
