mm: make setup_zone_migrate_reserve() aware of overlapping nodes
I have gotten to the root cause of the hugetlb badness I reported back on
August 15th. My system has the following memory topology (note the
overlapping node):
Node 0 Memory: 0x8000000-0x44000000
Node 1 Memory: 0x0-0x8000000 0x44000000-0x80000000
setup_zone_migrate_reserve() scans the address range 0x0-0x8000000 looking
for a pageblock to move onto the MIGRATE_RESERVE list. Finding no
candidates, it happily continues the scan into 0x8000000-0x44000000. When
a pageblock is found, the pages are moved to the MIGRATE_RESERVE list on
the wrong zone. Oops.
setup_zone_migrate_reserve() should skip pageblocks in overlapping nodes.
