[PATCH] mm/memory_hotplug: fix memmap_on_memory sysfs value retrieval

[Sumanth Korikkar]

The set_memmap_mode() function stores the kernel parameter memmap mode
as an integer. However, the get_memmap_mode() function utilizes
param_get_bool() to fetch the value as a boolean, leading to potential
endianness issue. On Big-endian architectures, the memmap_on_memory is
consistently displayed as 'N' regardless of its actual status.

To address this endianness problem, the solution involves obtaining the
mode as an integer. This adjustment ensures the proper display of the
memmap_on_memory parameter, presenting it as one of the following
options: Force, Y, or N.
