when pfn_valid(pfn) return false, pfn should be align with
pageblock_nr_pages other than MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES in
init_pages_in_zone, because the skipped 2M may be valid pfn,
as a result, early allocated count will not be accurate.
I really do not understand this changelog. I thought that
MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES and pageblock_nr_pages are the same thing but they
might not be for HUGETLB. Should init_pages_in_zone depend on something
like HUGETLB? Is this even correct I would have expected that we should
initialize in the page block steps so MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES. Could you
clarify Joonsoo, please?
