introduced the helper zone_end_pfn() to calculate the zone end pfn. But
update_pgdat_span() forgot to use it. Use this helper and re-name local
variable zone_end_pfn to end_pfn to fix below compilation error:

mm/memory_hotplug.c: In function ‘update_pgdat_span’:
mm/memory_hotplug.c:448:32: error: called object ‘zone_end_pfn’ is not a
function or function pointer
unsigned long zone_end_pfn = zone_end_pfn(zone);
^~~~~~~~~~~~
mm/memory_hotplug.c:448:17: note: declared here
unsigned long zone_end_pfn = zone_end_pfn(zone);
^~~~~~~~~~~~


Please don't talk about compilation issues your changes introduce in that detail, that's just confusing and looks like something would already be broken. Please simplify to something like

"Let's use zone_end_pfn(zone). We have to rename the local variable to avoid an identifier clash (variable vs. function)."

With that
