[PATCH] memory hotplug: fix page_zone() calculation intest_pages_isolated()

[Gerald Schaefer]

From: Gerald Schaefer <gerald.schaefer@xxxxxxxxxx>

My last bugfix here (adding zone->lock) introduced a new problem: Using
pfn_to_page(pfn) to get the zone after the for() loop is wrong. pfn then
points to the first pfn after end_pfn, which may be in a different zone
or not present at all. This may lead to an addressing exception in
page_zone() or spin_lock_irqsave().

Using the last valid page that was found inside the for() loop, instead
of pfn_to_page(), should fix this.
