While super-nifty, the new page_owner code assumes a contiguous
mem_map, which we don't all have.  This patch changes the
iterator in the read_page_owner() to be a pfn instead of a
'struct page'.  This makes it easy to jump around to different
non-contiuous 'struct pages' as with the CONFIG_DISCONTIG code.

It also uses pfn_valid() instead of max_pfn, which seems to be
a bit more flexible, and handles holes where there are no 
'struct pages' on the DISCONTIG systems.

BTW, I have no idea why that loop ended with a continue;
