mm, memory_hotplug: do not assume ZONE_NORMAL is default kernel zone
Heiko Carstens has noticed that he can generate overlapping zones for
ZONE_DMA and ZONE_NORMAL:
DMA [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x000000007fffffff]
Normal [mem 0x0000000080000000-0x000000017fffffff]
$ cat /sys/devices/system/memory/block_size_bytes
10000000
$ cat /sys/devices/system/memory/memory5/valid_zones
DMA
$ echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory5/online
$ cat /sys/devices/system/memory/memory5/valid_zones
Normal
$ echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory5/online
Normal
$ cat /proc/zoneinfo
Node 0, zone DMA

Node 0, zone Normal

The reason is that we assume that the default zone for kernel onlining
is ZONE_NORMAL. This was a simplification introduced by the memory
hotplug rework and it is easily fixable by checking the range overlap in
the zone order and considering the first matching zone as the default
one. If there is no such zone then assume ZONE_NORMAL as we have been
doing so far.
Fixes: "mm, memory_hotplug: do not associate hotadded memory to zones until online"
