Subject: [PATCH] LoongArch: mm: fix FLATMEM ARCH_PFN_OFFSET for
non-zero DRAM base

With CONFIG_FLATMEM, pfn_to_page() is computed as:

  mem_map + (pfn - ARCH_PFN_OFFSET)

LoongArch currently derives ARCH_PFN_OFFSET from PFN_UP(PHYS_OFFSET),
while PHYS_OFFSET defaults to 0. On systems whose first DRAM range does
not start at physical address 0, ARCH_PFN_OFFSET becomes smaller than
the real RAM base PFN.

As a result, pfn_to_page() points past the intended mem_map base during
early memmap initialization. This causes struct page initialization to
touch wrong entries and can lead to early boot failures in the
memmap_init_range() path.

Fix this by deriving ARCH_PFN_OFFSET from min_low_pfn, and initialize/
recalculate min_low_pfn from memblock_start_of_DRAM() in LoongArch
memory init so PFN-to-page translation matches the actual DRAM base.

This change only fixes the FLATMEM PFN base and does not alter the
existing VA/PA linear mapping scheme.
