    mm: compaction: check pfn_valid when entering a new MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES block during isolation for migration
    
    When isolating for migration, migration starts at the start of a zone
    which is not necessarily pageblock aligned.  Further, it stops isolating
    when COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX pages are isolated so migrate_pfn is generally
    not aligned.  This allows isolate_migratepages() to call pfn_to_page() on
    an invalid PFN which can result in a crash.  This was originally reported
    against a 3.0-based kernel with the following trace in a crash dump.

    It was also reported by Herbert van den Bergh against 3.1-based kernel
    with the following snippet from the console log.
    
    BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 01c00008
    IP: [<c0522399>] isolate_migratepages+0x119/0x390
    *pdpt = 000000002f7ce001 *pde = 0000000000000000
    
    It is expected that it also affects 3.2.x and current mainline.
    
    The problem is that pfn_valid is only called on the first PFN being
    checked and that PFN is not necessarily aligned.  Lets say we have a case
    like this
    
    H = MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES boundary
    | = pageblock boundary
    m = cc->migrate_pfn
    f = cc->free_pfn
    o = memory hole
    
    H------|------H------|----m-Hoooooo|ooooooH-f----|------H
    
    The migrate_pfn is just below a memory hole and the free scanner is beyond
    the hole.  When isolate_migratepages started, it scans from migrate_pfn to
    migrate_pfn+pageblock_nr_pages which is now in a memory hole.  It checks
    pfn_valid() on the first PFN but then scans into the hole where there are
    not necessarily valid struct pages.
    
    This patch ensures that isolate_migratepages calls pfn_valid when
    necessary.
