Commit 8d57470d cause a kernel panic while setting mem=2G.
     [mem 0x00000000-0x000fffff] page 4k
     [mem 0x7fe00000-0x7fffffff] page 1G
     [mem 0x7c000000-0x7fdfffff] page 1G
     [mem 0x00100000-0x001fffff] page 4k
     [mem 0x00200000-0x7bffffff] page 2M

but for last entry we should have
     [mem 0x00200000-0x3fffffff] page 2M
     [mem 0x40000000-0x7bffffff] page 1G

Actually there is bug about calling sequence for
adjust_range_page_size_mask(). Merge first will make
adjust to 1g for second partial 1g range fail.

Fix that by calling adjust_range_size_mask before merging mem_range
with same page size.

We need this one for v3.9 stable.
