mm: check pfn_valid first in zero_resv_unavail

Browse Source 
With latest kernel I get below bug while testing kdump:

This is introduced by commit a4a3ede213 ("mm: zero reserved and
unavailable struct pages").

The reason is some efi reserved boot ranges is not reported in E820 ram.
In my case it is a bgrt buffer:

  efi: mem00: [Boot Data          |RUN|  |  |  |  |  |  |   |WB|WT|WC|UC] range=[0x00000000d2c41000-0x00000000d2c85fff] (0MB)

Use "add_efi_memmap" can workaround the problem with another fix:

  http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171130052327.GA3500@dhcp-128-65.nay.redhat.com

In zero_resv_unavail it would be better to check pfn_valid first before
zero the page struct.  This fixes the problem and potential other
similar problems.  Also as Pavel Tatashin suggested checks pfn_valid at
the beginning of the section.

The range is backed by real memory.  The memory range is efi "Boot
Service Data", that means after ExitBootServices() these ranges can be
used as system ram.  But some of them need to be reserved, for example
the bgrt image address in an acpi table, if the image memory is freed
then kexec reboot will fail because kexec inherit same acpi table to
initialize the driver.
