Thanks for looking into this, David.

Having two variants of section_activate()/section_deactivate() is also
good. Just not like memmap handling which is very different between classic
sparse and vmemmap, makes having two variants very attractive, the code
and logic in section_activate()/section_deactivate() is not too much,
and both of them basically can share the most of code, these make the
variants way not so necessary. I personally prefer the current way, what
do you think?

Thanks
