walk_memory_range() was once used to iterate over sections. Now, it iterates over memory blocks. Rename the function, fixup the documentation. Also, pass start+size instead of PFNs, which is what most callers already have at hand. (we'll rework link_mem_sections() most probably soon) Follow-up patches will rework, simplify, and move walk_memory_blocks() to drivers/base/memory.c. Note: walk_memory_blocks() only works correctly right now if the start_pfn is aligned to a section start. This is the case right now, but we'll generalize the function in a follow up patch so the semantics match the documentation.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
