Subject: drivers/base/memory: determine and store zone for single-zone memory blocks

test_pages_in_a_zone() is just another nasty PFN walker that can easily
stumble over ZONE_DEVICE memory ranges falling into the same memory block
as ordinary system RAM: the memmap of parts of these ranges might possibly
be uninitialized.  In fact, we observed (on an older kernel) with UBSAN:

We seem to stumble over a memmap that contains a garbage zone id.  While
we could try inserting pfn_to_online_page() calls, it will just make
memory offlining slower, because we use test_pages_in_a_zone() to make
sure we're offlining pages that all belong to the same zone.

Let's just get rid of this PFN walker and determine the single zone of a
memory block -- if any -- for early memory blocks during boot.  For memory
onlining, we know the single zone already.  Let's avoid any additional
memmap scanning and just rely on the zone information available during
boot.

For memory hot(un)plug, we only really care about memory blocks that:
* span a single zone (and, thereby, a single node)
* are completely System RAM (IOW, no holes, no ZONE_DEVICE)
If one of these conditions is not met, we reject memory offlining.
Hotplugged memory blocks (starting out offline), always meet both
conditions.

There are three scenarios to handle:

(1) Memory hot(un)plug

A memory block with zone == NULL cannot be offlined, corresponding to
our previous test_pages_in_a_zone() check.

After successful memory onlining/offlining, we simply set the zone
accordingly.
* Memory onlining: set the zone we just used for onlining
* Memory offlining: set zone = NULL

So a hotplugged memory block starts with zone = NULL. Once memory
onlining is done, we set the proper zone.

(2) Boot memory with !CONFIG_NUMA

We know that there is just a single pgdat, so we simply scan all zones
of that pgdat for an intersection with our memory block PFN range when
adding the memory block. If more than one zone intersects (e.g., DMA and
DMA32 on x86 for the first memory block) we set zone = NULL and
consequently mimic what test_pages_in_a_zone() used to do.

(3) Boot memory with CONFIG_NUMA

At the point in time we create the memory block devices during boot, we
don't know yet which nodes *actually* span a memory block. While we could
scan all zones of all nodes for intersections, overlapping nodes complicate
the situation and scanning all nodes is possibly expensive. But that
problem has already been solved by the code that sets the node of a memory
block and creates the link in the sysfs --
do_register_memory_block_under_node().

So, we hook into the code that sets the node id for a memory block. If
we already have a different node id set for the memory block, we know
that multiple nodes *actually* have PFNs falling into our memory block:
we set zone = NULL and consequently mimic what test_pages_in_a_zone() used
to do. If there is no node id set, we do the same as (2) for the given
node.

Note that the call order in driver_init() is:
-> memory_dev_init(): create memory block devices
-> node_dev_init(): link memory block devices to the node and set the
		    node id

So in summary, we detect if there is a single zone responsible for this
memory block and we consequently store the zone in that case in the
memory block, updating it during memory onlining/offlining.
