Yes, their logic is indeed identical, so it is good to replace some
code with walk_memory_range().

I do not like this, please see if my suggestion is better:

1. Revert all the changes outside of  link_mem_sections()
2. Remove check_nid argument from register_mem_sect_under_node
and link_mem_sections.
3. In register_mem_sect_under_node
Replace:

if (check_nid) {
}

With:
if (system_state == SYSTEM_BOOTING) {
}

4. Change register_mem_sect_under_node() prototype to match callback
of walk_memory_range()
5. Call walk_memory_range(... register_mem_sect_under_node ...) from
link_mem_sections

Thank you,
Pavel
