Right. Tried in arch/ia64/mm/init.c, the change is as below. Looks
simple, compiling passed on ia64 should be OK.

Remember I ever tried to move the defer init up one level into memmap_init()
when making draft patch in the first place. I finally ended up with this
because there's overlap_memmap_init().
