mm: move pfn_to_online_page() out of line
Patch series "mm: Fix pfn_to_online_page() with respect to ZONE_DEVICE", v4. A pfn-walker that uses pfn_to_online_page() may inadvertently translate a pfn as online and in the page allocator, when it is offline managed by a ZONE_DEVICE mapping (details in Patch 3: ("mm: Teach pfn_to_online_page() about ZONE_DEVICE section collisions")). The 2 proposals under consideration are teach pfn_to_online_page() to be precise in the presence of mixed-zone sections, or teach the memory-add code to drop the System RAM associated with ZONE_DEVICE collisions. In order to not regress memory capacity by a few 10s to 100s of MiB the approach taken in this set is to add precision to pfn_to_online_page(). In the course of validating pfn_to_online_page() a couple other fixes fell out: 1/ soft_offline_page() fails to drop the reference taken in the madvise(..., MADV_SOFT_OFFLINE) case. 2/ memory_failure() uses get_dev_pagemap() to lookup ZONE_DEVICE pages, however that mapping may contain data pages and metadata raw pfns. Introduce pgmap_pfn_valid() to delineate the 2 types and fail the handling of raw metadata pfns. This patch (of 4); pfn_to_online_page() is already too large to be a macro or an inline function. In anticipation of further logic changes / growth, move it out of line. No functional change, just code movement.
