[PATCH] memset() in cyclic bitmap initialization introduce segment fault.
We are using memset() to improve performance when creating 1st and 2nd
bitmap. After doing round up the pfn_start and round down pfn_end, it's
possible that pfn_start_roundup is greater than pfn_end_round. A segment
fault could happen in that case because memset is taking roughly the
value of (pfn_end_round << 3 - pfn_start_roundup << 3 ), which is
negative, as its third argument.
So we can skip the memset if start is greater than end. It's safe
because we will set bit for the round up part and also round down part.
Actually this happens on my EFI virtual machine:

This patch fixes segment fault issues on the systems with very small
memory map range (less than 8 pages).

The regression is introduced in makedumpfile-1.5.5. So this patch is for rawhide/f21
only.
