Good catch. Both for_each_free_mem_range and __early_pfn_to_nid rely on
the memblock layer to properly map ranges to nids. I haven't checked too
closely whether this was really necessary in the original deferred
implementatiob by Mel but it is much more clear that it is not needed
now with the clear iterator.
