Subject: mm: Don't offset memmap for flatmem
Srinivas Kandagatla reported bad page messages when trying to remove the
bottom 2MB on an ARM based IFC6410 board

Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint
Removing the lower 2MB made the start of the lowmem zone to no longer be
page block aligned. IFC6410 uses CONFIG_FLATMEM where alloc_node_mem_map
allocates memory for the mem_map. alloc_node_mem_map will offset for
unaligned nodes with the assumption the pfn/page translation functions
will account for the offset. The functions for CONFIG_FLATMEM do not
offset however, resulting in overrunning the memmap array. Just use the
allocated memmap without any offset when running with CONFIG_FLATMEM to
avoid the overrun.
