#1214193 — [PATCH v3] mm: Check if section present during memory block registering

Tony found on his setup, if memory block size 512M will cause crash
during booting.

 BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffea0074000020
 IP: [<ffffffff81670527>] get_nid_for_pfn+0x17/0x40
 PGD 128ffcb067 PUD 128ffc9067 PMD 0 
 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP 
 Modules linked in:
 CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 4.2.0-rc8 #1
...
 Call Trace:
  [<ffffffff81453b56>] ? register_mem_sect_under_node+0x66/0xe0
  [<ffffffff81453eeb>] register_one_node+0x17b/0x240
  [<ffffffff81b1f1ed>] ? pci_iommu_alloc+0x6e/0x6e
  [<ffffffff81b1f229>] topology_init+0x3c/0x95
  [<ffffffff8100213d>] do_one_initcall+0xcd/0x1f0

The system has non continuous RAM address:
 BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000001300000000-0x0000001cffffffff] usable
 BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000001d70000000-0x0000001ec7ffefff] usable
 BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000001f00000000-0x0000002bffffffff] usable
 BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000002c18000000-0x0000002d6fffefff] usable
 BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000002e00000000-0x00000039ffffffff] usable

So there are start sections in memory block not present.
For example:
memory block : [0x2c18000000, 0x2c20000000) 512M
first three sections are not present.

Current register_mem_sect_under_node() assume first section is present,
but memory block section number range [start_section_nr, end_section_nr]
would include not present section.

For arch that support vmemmap, we don't setup memmap for struct page area
within not present sections area.

So skip the pfn range that belong to absent section.

-v2: add fixes and comment.
-v3: we don't need to worry about unregiser path, as unregister_memory_section()
	already check if the section is present before.

stable@vger.kernel.org probably never received this since it was sent to 
stable@vger.kernel.org.#v3.15

scn_nr should really be unsigned long, but it would probably be better to 
simply use if (!pfn_present(pfn)) rather than store the section number.

Yup.  I was feeling lazy but you motivated me.

Let me get in on this simplification party.
