mm/sparsemem: pfn_to_page is not valid yet on SPARSEMEM
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
When we use SPARSEMEM instead of SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, pfn_to_page()
doesn't work before sparse_init_one_section() is called.

This leads to a crash when hotplug memory:

    BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 0000000006400000

We should use memmap as it did.

On x86 the impact is limited to x86_32 builds, or x86_64 configurations
that override the default setting for SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP.

Other memory hotplug archs (arm64, ia64, and ppc) also default to
SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP=y.
