Recent testing uncovered two bugs around the handling of section-misaligned
pmem regions:

1/ If the pmem section overlaps "System RAM" we need to fail the
   devm_memremap_pages() request.  Previously we would mis-detect a
   memory map like the following:

        100000000-37bffffff : System RAM
        37c000000-837ffffff : Persistent Memory

2/ If the pmem section is misaligned, but otherwise does not overlap
   memory from another zone, the altmap needs to be fixed up to add the
   alignment padding to the 'reserved ' pfns of the altmap.
