Subject: [PATCH 6/6] power: add zone range overlapping check

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

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.

mark_free_pages() iterates requested zone's pfn range and unset
all range's bitmap first. And then it marks freepages in a zone
to the bitmap. If there is an overlapping zone, above unset could
clear previous marked bit and reference to this bitmap in the future
will cause the problem. To prevent it, this patch adds a zone check
in mark_free_pages().
