Commit f9126ab9241f ("memory-hotplug: fix wrong edge when hot add a new
node") hot-added memory range to memblock, after creating pgdat for new
node.

But there is a problem:

  add_memory()
  |--> hotadd_new_pgdat()
       |--> free_area_init_node()
            |--> get_pfn_range_for_nid()
                 |--> find start_pfn and end_pfn in memblock
  |--> ......
  |--> memblock_add_node(start, size, nid)    --------    Here, just too late.

get_pfn_range_for_nid() will find that start_pfn and end_pfn are both 0.
As a result, when adding memory, dmesg will give the following wrong
message.

  Initmem setup node 5 [mem 0x0000000000000000-0xffffffffffffffff]
  On node 5 totalpages: 0
  Built 5 zonelists in Node order, mobility grouping on.  Total pages: 32588823
  Policy zone: Normal
  init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x60000000000-0x607ffffffff]

The solution is simple, just add the memory range to memblock a little
earlier, before hotadd_new_pgdat().
