this should be for_each_managed_zone because we only care about highmem
zones which have pages in the allocator (NR_FREE_PAGES).

I am not familiar with this code much but I strongly suspect that we do
want for_each_managed_zone here because saveable_highmem_page skips over
all reserved pages which rules out the bootmem. But this should be
double checked with Rafael (Cc-ed).

Rafael, does this loop care about pages which are not managed by the
page allocator?

ditto for the above.

This one should be for_each_managed_zone (NR_FREE_PAGES)

The rest looks good to me.
