ARM: 7805/1: mm: change max*pfn to include the physical offset of memory
Most of the kernel code assumes that max*pfn is maximum pfns because the physical start of memory is expected to be PFN0. Since this assumption is not true on ARM architectures, the meaning of max*pfn is number of memory pages. This is done to keep drivers happy which are making use of of these variable to calculate the dma bounce limit using dma_mask. Now since we have a architecture override possibility for DMAable maximum pfns, lets make meaning of max*pfns as maximum pnfs on ARM as well.
