[PATCH] ARM: mm: Regarding section when dealing with meminfo

Sparsemem allows that a bank of memory spans over several adjacent
sections if the start address and the end address of the bank
belong to different sections.
When gathering statictics of physical memory in mem_init() and
show_mem(), this possiblity was not considered.

This patch guarantees that simple increasing the pointer to page
descriptors does not exceed the boundary of a section.
