[S390] memory hotplug: prevent memory zone interleave
This fixes a kernel oops with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM triggered by a VM_BUG_ON(bad_range()): kernel BUG at mm/page_alloc.c:748. With memory hotplug on System z, it is possible that the memory online/offline state is preserved over a system restart, e.g. there may be offline memory blocks in ZONE_DMA or ZONE_NORMAL. So far, the offline memory range has always been added to ZONE_MOVABLE during system start, so that it was possible to have ZONE_MOVABLE interleave with ZONE_DMA or ZONE_NORMAL. This patch fixes that by checking for zone overlap before adding memory.
