Hmm, I think you try to free the memory allocated in kmalloc_section_memmap().

Hmm, which function is the memory you try to free allocated in?

Hmm, why not goto next pgd?

I think you should flush tlb here.

Hmm, the memory is allocated in vmemmap_alloc_block(), and the address
can not be vmalloc address.

OOPS. I think we cannot free pages here.

sizeof(struct page) is less than PAGE_SIZE. We store more than one struct
page in the same page. If you free it here while the other struct page
is in use, it is very dangerous.

I think this line can be removed now.
