[PATCH v2] mm/sparse.c: Use kvmalloc_node/kvfree to alloc/free memmap for the classic sparse

From: Baoquan He
Date: Thu Mar 12 2020 - 09:08:38 EST


This change makes populate_section_memmap()/depopulate_section_memmap
much simpler.

v1->v2:
The old version only used __get_free_pages() to replace alloc_pages()
in populate_section_memmap().
