Subject: [RFC PATCH 3/8] mm: Introduce and initialize zone memory regions

Memory region boundaries don't necessarily fit on zone boundaries. So we need
to maintain a zone-level mapping of the absolute memory region boundaries.

"Node Memory Regions" will be used to capture the absolute region boundaries.
Add "Zone Memory Regions" to track the subsets of the absolute memory regions
that fall within the zone boundaries.

Eg:

	|<---------------------Node---------------------->|
	 _________________________________________________
	|      Node mem reg 0 	|      Node mem reg 1     |
	|_______________________|_________________________|

	 _________________________________________________
	|   ZONE_DMA    |	ZONE_NORMAL		  |
	|_______________|_________________________________|


In the above figure,

ZONE_DMA has only 1 zone memory region (say, Zone mem reg 0) which is a subset
of Node mem reg 0.

ZONE_NORMAL has 2 zone memory regions (say, Zone mem reg 0 and Zone mem reg 1)
which are subsets of Node mem reg 0 and Node mem reg 1 respectively.
