If we add to an empty lmb region with a non-zero base we will not coalesce
the number of regions down to one. This causes problems on ppc32 for the
memory region as its assumed to only have one region.
We can fix this easily by causing the initial add to replace the dummy
region.

Sorry, I was being vague. Mel Gorman found a problem that ap
balance_pgdat() calls zone_watermark_ok() three times, the first call
passes a zero(0) in as the 4th argument. This 4th argument is the
classzone_idx which is used as the index into the zone->lowmem_reserve[]
array.
Since setup_per_zone_lowmem_reserve()
always sets the zone->lowmem_reserve[0]

Hello,
I spotted a few unchecked memory allocation failures recently,
