[PATCH] x86: fix nodes_cover_memory

From: Yinghai Lu
Date: Wed May 06 2009 - 12:55:32 EST



found one system that missed one entry for one node in SRAT, and that SRAT is not
rejected by nodes_cover_memory()

it turns out that we can not use absent_page_in_range to calaulate
e820ram, bacause that will use early_node_map and that is AND result of
e820 and SRAT.

revert back to use e820_hole_size instead.

also change that difference checking to 1M instead of 4G,
because e820ram, and pxmram are in pages.

[ Impact: reject wrong SRAT tables ]
