Russ Anderson f9228b204f mm: zone_end_pfn is too small
Booting with 32 TBytes memory hits BUG at mm/page_alloc.c:552! (output
below).

The key hint is "page 4294967296 outside zone".
4294967296 = 0x100000000 (bit 32 is set).

The problem is in include/linux/mmzone.h:

  530 static inline unsigned zone_end_pfn(const struct zone *zone)
  531 {
  532         return zone->zone_start_pfn + zone->spanned_pages;
  533 }

zone_end_pfn is "unsigned" (32 bits).  Changing it to "unsigned long"
(64 bits) fixes the problem.

zone_end_pfn() was added recently in commit 108bcc96ef ("mm: add & use
zone_end_pfn() and zone_spans_pfn()")

Output from the failure.

  No AGP bridge found
  page 4294967296 outside zone [ 4294967296 - 4327469056 ]
