Subject: mm/sparsemem: add helpers track active portions of a section at boot

Prepare for hot{plug,remove} of sub-ranges of a section by tracking a
sub-section active bitmask, each bit representing a PMD_SIZE span of the
architecture's memory hotplug section size.

The implications of a partially populated section is that pfn_valid()
needs to go beyond a valid_section() check and either determine that the
section is an "early section", or read the sub-section active ranges from
the bitmask.  The expectation is that the bitmask (subsection_map) fits in
the same cacheline as the valid_section() / early_section() data, so the
incremental performance overhead to pfn_valid() should be negligible.

The rationale for using early_section() to short-ciruit the subsection_map
check is that there are legacy code paths that use pfn_valid() at section
granularity before validating the pfn against pgdat data.  So, the
early_section() check allows those traditional assumptions to persist
while also permitting subsection_map to tell the truth for purposes of
populating the unused portions of early sections with PMEM and other
ZONE_DEVICE mappings.
