arm64: check for upper PAGE_SHIFT bits in pfn_valid()
pfn_valid() returns a false positive when the lower (64 - PAGE_SHIFT)
bits match a valid pfn but some of the upper bits are set. This caused
a kernel panic in kpageflags_read() when a userspace utility parsed
/proc/*/pagemap, neglected to discard the upper flag bits, and tried to
lseek()+read() from the corresponding offset in /proc/kpageflags.
A valid pfn will never have the upper PAGE_SHIFT bits set, so simply
check for this before passing the pfn to memblock_is_memory().
