[PATCH 02/12] mm: fix boundary checking in free_bootmem_core fix



[PATCH] mm: fix boundary checking in free_bootmem_core fix

[PATCH] mm: fix boundary checking in free_bootmem_core

make the free_bootmem_core could handle out of range case. we could use
bdata_list to make sure the range can be freed for sure.

so next time, we don't need to loop online nodes and could use
free_bootmem directly.
