mm/memory_hotplug.c: fix overflow in test_pages_in_a_zone()

When mainline introduced commit cef2c8258999 ("base/memory, hotplug: fix
a kernel oops in show_valid_zones()"), it obtained the valid start and
end pfn from the given pfn range.  The valid start pfn can fix the
actual issue, but it introduced another issue.  The valid end pfn will
may exceed the given end_pfn.

Although the incorrect overflow will not result in actual problem at
present, but I think it need to be fixed.

[toshi.kani@hpe.com: remove assumption that end_pfn is aligned by MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES]
