Hmm, do the max/min here work as intended? IIUC the initial zone_start_pfn is UINT_MAX and zone->spanned_pages is 1? So at least the max/min should be swapped?
Also the zone_end_pfn(zone) on the second line already sees the changes to zone->zone_start_pfn in the first line, so it's kind of a mess. You should probably cache zone_end_pfn() to a temporary variable before changing zone_start_pfn.

I'm guessing the initial values come from this part in patch 2/6:
