Alison Schofield b626070ffc x86/numa: Fix the sort compare func used in numa_fill_memblks()
The compare function used to sort memblks into starting address
order fails when the result of its u64 address subtraction gets
truncated to an int upon return.

The impact of the bad sort is that memblks will be filled out
incorrectly. Depending on the set of memblks, a user may see no
errors at all but still have a bad fill, or see messages reporting
a node overlap that leads to numa init failure:

[] node 0 [mem: ] overlaps with node 1 [mem: ]
[] No NUMA configuration found

Replace with a comparison that can only result in: 1, 0, -1.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
