MIPS: pfn_valid() is broken on low memory HIGHMEM systems

pfn_valid() compares the PFN to max_mapnr:

        __pfn >= min_low_pfn && __pfn < max_mapnr;

On HIGHMEM kernels, highend_pfn is used to set the value of max_mapnr.
Unfortunately, highend_pfn is left at zero if the system does not
actually have enough RAM to reach into the HIGHMEM range.  This causes
pfn_valid() to always return false, and when debug checks are enabled
the kernel will fail catastrophically:

Memory: 22432k/32768k available (2249k kernel code, 10336k reserved, 653k data, 1352k init, 0k highmem)
NR_IRQS:128
kfree_debugcheck: out of range ptr 81c02900h.
Kernel bug detected[#1]:
Cpu 0
$ 0   : 00000000 10008400 00000034 00000000
$ 4   : 8003e160 802a0000 8003e160 00000000
$ 8   : 00000000 0000003e 00000747 00000747
...

On such a configuration, max_low_pfn should be used to set max_mapnr.
