Not shared, spanned. A PFN always belongs to exactly one ZONE+NODE, but
might be "spanned" by multiple nodes or multiple zones, because nodes
and zones can overlap We can get the actual zone of a PFN via
page_zone(page) in my example above. Note that checking for the zone
structure (not the zone number/idx) implicitly checks for the node.


Let's take a look at an example:

...
[root@...0 ~]# cat /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones
Normal
[root@...0 ~]# cat /sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones

# cat /proc/zoneinfo
Node 0, zone      DMA
	...
        spanned  4095
        present  3998
        managed  3977

  start_pfn:           1
Node 0, zone    DMA32

        spanned  1044480
        present  782304
        managed  765920

  start_pfn:           4096
Node 0, zone   Normal

        present  393216
        managed  365736

  start_pfn:           1048576
Node 0, zone  Movable
	...
        spanned  229376
        present  131072
        managed  131072
  start_pfn:           1310720


So Normal spans:

1048576 -> 1572863

And Movable spans:

1310720 -> 1540095

Both zones overlap.
