David Hildenbrand f8b09a0436 mm/memory_hotplug: fix updating the node span
commit 656d571193 upstream.

We recently started updating the node span based on the zone span to
avoid touching uninitialized memmaps.

Currently, we will always detect the node span to start at 0, meaning a
node can easily span too many pages.  pgdat_is_empty() will still work
correctly if all zones span no pages.  We should skip over all zones
without spanned pages and properly handle the first detected zone that
spans pages.

Unfortunately, in contrast to the zone span (/proc/zoneinfo), the node
span cannot easily be inspected and tested.  The node span gives no real
guarantees when an architecture supports memory hotplug, meaning it can
easily contain holes or span pages of different nodes.

The node span is not really used after init on architectures that
support memory hotplug.

E.g., we use it in mm/memory_hotplug.c:try_offline_node() and in
mm/kmemleak.c:kmemleak_scan().  These users seem to be fine.

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

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.
