[PATCH v1 1/2] mm/page_alloc: fix and rework pfn handling in memmap_init_zone()

[David Hildenbrand]

Let's update the pfn manually whenever we continue the loop. This makes
the code easier to read but also less error prone (and we can directly
fix one issue).

When overlap_memmap_init() returns true, pfn is updated to
"memblock_region_memory_end_pfn(r)". So it already points at the *next*
pfn to process. Incrementing the pfn another time is wrong, we might
leave one uninitialized. I spotted this by inspecting the code, so I have
no idea if this is relevant in practise (with kernelcore=mirror).

Fixes: a9a9e77fbf27 ("mm: move mirrored memory specific code outside of memmap_init_zone")
