There are 3 cases when doing online pages:
- normal RAM, should be aligned with memory block size
- persistent memory with ZONE_DEVICE
- persistent memory used as normal RAM (kmem) with ZONE_NORMAL, this patch
tries to adjust the start_pfn/end_pfn after finding the corresponding
resource range.
Without this patch, the check of __init_single_page when doing online memory
will be failed because those pages haven't been mapped in mmu(not present
from mmu's point of view).
