walk system ram range
Originally, walk_memory_resource() was introduced to traverse all memory
of "System RAM" for detecting memory hotplug/unplug range.  For doing so,
flags of IORESOUCE_MEM|IORESOURCE_BUSY was used and this was enough for
memory hotplug.

But for using other purpose, /proc/kcore, this may includes some firmware
area marked as IORESOURCE_BUSY | IORESOUCE_MEM.  This patch makes the
check strict to find out busy "System RAM".

Note: PPC64 keeps their own walk_memory_resouce(), which walk through
ppc64's lmb informaton.  Because old kclist_add() is called per lmb, this
patch makes no difference in behavior, finally.

And this patch removes CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG check from this function.
Because pfn_valid() just show "there is memmap or not* and cannot be used
for "there is physical memory or not", this function is useful in generic
to scan physical memory range.
