mm/shuffle: don't move pages between zones and don't read garbage memmaps
Especially with memory hotplug, we can have offline sections (with a garbage memmap) and overlapping zones. We have to make sure to only touch initialized memmaps (online sections managed by the buddy) and that the zone matches, to not move pages between zones. To test if this can actually happen, I added a simple BUG_ON(page_zone(page_i) != page_zone(page_j)); right before the swap. When hotplugging a 256M DIMM to a 4G x86-64 VM and onlining the first memory block "online_movable" and the second memory block "online_kernel", it will trigger the BUG, as both zones (NORMAL and MOVABLE) overlap. This might result in all kinds of weird situations (e.g., double allocations, list corruptions, unmovable allocations ending up in the movable zone).
