When using devm_request_free_mem_region() and devm_memremap_pages() to
add ZONE_DEVICE memory, if requested free mem region's end pfn were
huge(e.g., 0x400000000), the node_end_pfn() will be also huge (see
move_pfn_range_to_zone()).  Thus it creates a huge hole between
node_start_pfn() and node_end_pfn().

We found on some AMD APUs, amdkfd requested such a free mem region and
created a huge hole.  In such a case, following code snippet was just
doing busy test_bit() looping on the huge hole.

  for (pfn = start_pfn; pfn < end_pfn; pfn++) {
	struct page *page = pfn_to_online_page(pfn);
		if (!page)
			continue;
	...
  }

So we got a soft lockup:

I did some tests with the patch.

(1) amdgpu module unloaded
