online_page_ext and page_ext_init allocate page_ext for each section, but
they do not allocate if the first PFN is !pfn_present(pfn) or
!pfn_valid(pfn). Then section->page_ext remains as NULL. lookup_page_ext
checks NULL only if CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled. For a valid PFN,
__set_page_owner will try to get page_ext through lookup_page_ext.
Without CONFIG_DEBUG_VM lookup_page_ext will misuse NULL pointer as value
0. This incurrs invalid address access.
This is the panic example when PFN 0x100000 is not valid but PFN 0x13FC00
is being used for page_ext. section->page_ext is NULL, get_entry returned
invalid page_ext address as 0x1DFA000 for a PFN 0x13FC00.

Though the first page is not valid, page_ext could be useful for other
pages in the section. But checking all PFNs in a section may be time
consuming job. Let's check each (section count / 16) PFN, then prepare
page_ext if any PFN is present or valid. And remove the CONFIG_DEBUG_VM in
lookup_page_ext to avoid panic.
