This is wrong. You add number of pages in range core MM sees to the number
of pages covered by the numa_meminfo.

More generally, rather than traverse all the numa_meminfo's and for each of
them traverse all the regions in memblock.memory it's enough to count
memory in memblock that doesn't have the node assigned and compare it to
memblock_phys_mem_size().
