There are a number of different views to how much memory is currently active. There is the arch-independent zone-sizing view, the bootmem allocator and SPARSEMEMs view. Architectures register this information at different times and is not necessarily in sync particularly with view to some SPARSEMEM limitations.
This patch introduces mminit_validate_physlimits() which is able to validate and correct PFN ranges with respect to SPARSEMEM limitations. Ordinarily they will be fixed silently but if mminit_debug_level is MMINIT_VERIFY or higher, a message will be printed to dmesg.
