powerpc/pseries: Avoid NULL pointer dereference when drmem is unavailable
In guests without hotplugagble memory drmem structure is only zero initialized. Trying to manipulate DLPAR parameters results in a crash. $ echo "memory add count 1" > /sys/kernel/dlpar Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1] LE PAGE_SIZE=64K MMU=Hash SMP NR_CPUS=2048 NUMA pSeries ...

When drmem_info->lmbs is NULL, the loop would iterate through the whole address range if it weren't stopped by the NULL pointer dereference on the next line. This patch aligns for_each_drmem_lmb and for_each_drmem_lmb_in_range macro behavior with the common C semantics, where the end marker does not belong to the scanned range, and alters get_lmb_range() semantics. As a side effect, the wraparound observed in the crash is prevented.
