Subject: [PATCH] Revert "mm: page_alloc: skip over regions of invalid pfns where possible"
This reverts commit b92df1de5d289c0b5d653e72414bf0850b8511e0. The commit
is meant to be a boot init speed up skipping the loop in memmap_init_zone()
for invalid pfns. But given some specific memory mapping on x86_64 (or more
generally theoretically anywhere but on arm with CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID)
the implementation also skips valid pfns which is plain wrong and causes
'kernel BUG at mm/page_alloc.c:1389!'
