To perform memory hotplug operations, the memmap (aka struct page)

Commit 2045a3b8911b ("mm/sparse-vmemmap: generalise
vmemmap_populate_hugepages()")
optimizes this 2M buffer to be mapped with PMD huge pages. However,
commit ba72b4c8cf60 ("mm/sparsemem: support sub-section hotplug")
which supports 2M subsection hotplug granularity, causes other issues
(refer to the change log of patch #1). The logic is adjusted to populate
with huge pages only if the hotplug address/size is section-aligned.
Could any expert please help review ?
