Both of my change and above change work because they are almost equal. I 
changed like below at the very beginning, but using 'size' is simpler.
Please see below comment.

static bool __init early_memremap_is_setup_data(resource_size_t phys_addr,
                                                unsigned long size)
{
	struct setup_indirect *indirect;
        struct setup_data *data;
        u64 paddr, paddr_next;

	paddr = boot_params.hdr.setup_data;
        while (paddr) {
		......
		size = sizeof(*data); // size = sizeof(stuct setup_data);
		.......	
	}
	...
}
