[RFC,4/6] mm/page_alloc: adjust the start,end in dax pmem kmem case

Commit Message

Justin He July 29, 2020, 3:34 a.m. UTC

There are 3 cases when doing online pages:
 - normal RAM, should be aligned with memory block size
 - persistent memory with ZONE_DEVICE
 - persistent memory used as normal RAM (kmem) with ZONE_NORMAL, this patch
   tries to adjust the start_pfn/end_pfn after finding the corresponding
   resource range.

Without this patch, the check of __init_single_page when doing online memory
will be failed because those pages haven't been mapped in mmu(not present
from mmu's point of view).
