Subject: mm/mempolicy.c: check range first in queue_pages_test_walk

Checking unmapped hole and updating the previous vma must be handled
first, otherwise the unmapped hole could be calculated from a wrong
previous vma.

Several commits were relevant to this error:
commit 6f4576e3687b
("mempolicy: apply page table walker on queue_pages_range()"),
This commit was correct, the VM_PFNMAP check was after updating previous
vma

commit 48684a65b4e3
(mm: pagewalk: fix misbehavior of walk_page_range for vma(VM_PFNMAP)),
This commit added VM_PFNMAP check before updating previous vma. Then,
there were two VM_PFNMAP check did same thing twice.

commit acda0c334028
(mm/mempolicy.c: get rid of duplicated check for vma(VM_PFNMAP) in queue_page
s_range()),
This commit tried to fix the duplicated VM_PFNMAP check, but it wrongly
removed the one which was after updating vma.
