And also, I think we don't need to check MIX_SECTION_INFO since it is
for the pageblock_flags, not the memmap in the section.

Oh, no :)

We also need to check MIX_SECTION_INFO because we set pgd, pud, pmd
pages as MIX_SECTION_INFO in register_page_bootmem_memmap() in patch6.

Thanks. :)


Thanks. :)

+ put_page_bootmem(page);

Hi Tang,

For removing memmap of sparse-vmemmap, in cpu_has_pse case, if magic
== SECTION_INFO,
the order will be get_order(PMD_SIZE), so we need a loop here to put
all the 512 pages.

Hi Wu,

Thanks for reminding me that. I truely missed it.

And since in register_page_bootmem_info_section(), a whole memory
section will be set as SECTION_INFO, I think we don't need to check
the page magic one by one, just the first one is enough. :)

I will fix it, thanks. :)
