ARM: mm: cleanup checks for membank overlap with vmalloc area
On Keystone platforms, physical memory is entirely outside the 32-bit addressible range. Therefore, the (bank->start > ULONG_MAX) check below marks the entire system memory as highmem, and this causes unpleasentness all over. This patch eliminates the extra bank start check (against ULONG_MAX) by checking bank->start against the physical address corresponding to vmalloc_min instead. In the process, this patch also cleans up parts of the highmem sanity check code by removing what has now become a redundant check for banks that entirely overlap with the vmalloc range.
