Toshi Kani a96dfddbcc base/memory, hotplug: fix a kernel oops in show_valid_zones()
Reading a sysfs "memoryN/valid_zones" file leads to the following oops
when the first page of a range is not backed by struct page.
show_valid_zones() assumes that 'start_pfn' is always valid for
page_zone().

 BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffea017a000000
 IP: show_valid_zones+0x6f/0x160

This issue may happen on x86-64 systems with 64GiB or more memory since
their memory block size is bumped up to 2GiB.  [1] An example of such
systems is desribed below.  0x3240000000 is only aligned by 1GiB and
this memory block starts from 0x3200000000, which is not backed by
struct page.

 BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000003240000000-0x000000603fffffff] usable

Since test_pages_in_a_zone() already checks holes, fix this issue by
extending this function to return 'valid_start' and 'valid_end' for a
given range.  show_valid_zones() then proceeds with the valid range.

    large-memory x86-64 systems")'
