[PATCH 06/49] mm/mm_init: fix uninitialized pageblock migratetype for ZONE_DEVICE compound pages

Previously, memmap_init_zone_device() only initialized the migratetype
of the first pageblock of a compound page. If the compound page size
exceeds pageblock_nr_pages (e.g., 1GB hugepages with 2MB pageblocks),
subsequent pageblocks in the compound page would remain uninitialized.
This patch moves the migratetype initialization out of
__init_zone_device_page() and into a separate function
pageblock_migratetype_init_range(). This function iterates over the
entire PFN range of the memory, ensuring that all pageblocks are correctly
initialized.
Fixes: c4386bd8ee3a ("mm/memremap: add ZONE_DEVICE support for compound pages")
