[PATCH v5 01/10] mm/memunmap: Use the correct start and end pfn when removing pages from zone

From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" <aneesh.kumar at linux.ibm.com>

With altmap, all the resource pfns are not initialized. While initializing
pfn, altmap reserve space is skipped. Hence when removing pfn from zone
skip pfns that were never initialized.

Update memunmap_pages to calculate start and end pfn based on altmap
values. This fixes a kernel crash that is observed when destroying
a namespace.
