When DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is enabled, just a subset of memmap at boot are initialized, then the rest are initialized in parallel by starting one-off "pgdatinitX" kernel thread for each node X. If page_ext_init is called before it, some pages will not have valid extension, so move page_ext_init() after it.
