PATCH 1/2 ia64: fix the difference between node_mem_map and node_start_pfn

From: "Ken'ichi Ohmichi" <[email protected]>

makedumpfile[1] cannot run on ia64 discontigmem kernel, because the member node_mem_map of struct pgdat_list has invalid value. This patch fixes it.

node_start_pfn shows the start pfn of each node, and node_mem_map should point 'struct page' of each node's node_start_pfn. On my machine, node0's node_start_pfn shows 0x400 and its node_mem_map points 0xa0007fffbf000000.
This address is the same as vmem_map, so the node_mem_map points 'struct
page' of pfn 0, even if its node_start_pfn shows 0x400.

The cause is due to the round down of min_pfn in count_node_pages() and node0's node_mem_map points 'struct page' of inactive pfn (0x0). This patch fixes it.
