Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] mm/page_alloc: fix memmap_init_zone pageblock alignment
Commit b92df1de5d28 ("mm: page_alloc: skip over regions of invalid pfns
where possible") introduced a bug where move_freepages() triggers a
VM_BUG_ON() on uninitialized page structure due to pageblock alignment.
To fix this, simply align the skipped pfns in memmap_init_zone()
the same way as in move_freepages_block().

BUG, zones differ!
Note that this range follows two not populated sections 68000000-77ffffff
in this zone. 7b788000-7b7fffff is the first one after a gap. This makes
memmap_init_zone() skip all the pfns up to the beginning of this range.
But this range is not pageblock (2M) aligned. In fact no range has to be.

Top part of page flags should contain nodeid and zonenr, which is not
the case for page ffffea0001ed8000 here (<<<<).

Initialization of the whole beginning of the section is skipped up to the
start of the range due to the commit b92df1de5d28. Now any code calling
move_freepages_block() (like reusing the page from a freelist as in this
example) with a page from the beginning of the range will get the page
rounded down to start_page ffffea0001ed8000 and passed to move_freepages()
which crashes on assertion getting wrong zonenr.
> VM_BUG_ON(page_zone(start_page) != page_zone(end_page));
Note, page_zone() derives the zone from page flags here.

All the pages since the beginning of the section are initialized.
move_freepages()' not gonna blow up.
The same machine with this fix applied:

ffffea0001edffc0 7b7ff000 ffff88017fb13720 8 2 1fffff00020068 uptodate,lru,active,mappedtodisk
At least the bare minimum of pages is initialized preventing the crash as well.
