Daniel Vacek f59f1caf72 Revert "mm: page_alloc: skip over regions of invalid pfns where possible" 
This reverts commit b92df1de5d ("mm: page_alloc: skip over regions of
invalid pfns where possible").  The commit is meant to be a boot init
speed up skipping the loop in memmap_init_zone() for invalid pfns.

But given some specific memory mapping on x86_64 (or more generally
theoretically anywhere but on arm with CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID) the
implementation also skips valid pfns which is plain wrong and causes
'kernel BUG at mm/page_alloc.c:1389!'

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
