Subject: [PATCH 0/6] Add zone overlapping check

From: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@....com>

Hello, all.

This patchset deals with some problematic sites that iterate pfn range.

There is a system that node's pfn are overlapped like as following.

-----pfn-------->
N0 N1 N2 N0 N1 N2

Therefore, we need to care this overlapping when iterating pfn range.

I audit many iterating sites that uses pfn_valid(), pfn_valid_within(),
zone_start_pfn and etc. and others looks safe for me. This is
a preparation step for new CMA implementation, ZONE_CMA [1], because
it would be easily overlapped with other zones. But, zone overlap
check is also needed for general case so I send it separately.

This is based on next-20160311.

Thanks.
