mark_free_pages() walks every valid PFN of a zone and calls page_zone()
on its struct page. A PFN in an offlined memory block is still valid,
but its memmap is no longer initialised: offlining poisons it. With
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM that is caught on the first such page:
page:ffffea0005400000 is uninitialized and poisoned
page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PagePoisoned(page))
kernel BUG at ./include/linux/mm.h:2402!
RIP: 0010:mark_free_pages+0x49a/0x4b0 kernel/power/snapshot.c:1266
count_data_pages kernel/power/snapshot.c:1417 [inline]
hibernate_preallocate_memory+0x14f/0x750 kernel/power/snapshot.c:1859
hibernation_snapshot+0xd5/0x3d0 kernel/power/hibernate.c:416
hibernate+0x28f/0x680 kernel/power/hibernate.c:813
syzbot's reproducer offlines memory42 and then writes "disk" to
/sys/power/state; that page is the first one of memory42. Without
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM the walk reads stale page flags instead.
saveable_page() and saveable_highmem_page() already use
pfn_to_online_page() for this since commit 5b56db37218e ("PM/Hibernate:
use pfn_to_online_page()"). Do the same here. Offline pages are never
on a free list, so the second loop in this function does not need it.
Fixes: d33695b16a9f ("mm/memory_hotplug: poison memmap in remove_pfn_range_from_zone()")
