Subject: mm/memory_hotplug: use pfn math in place of direct struct page manipulation
Date: Wed, 13 Sep 2023 16:12:46 -0400

When dealing with hugetlb pages, manipulating struct page pointers
directly can get to wrong struct page, since struct page is not guaranteed
to be contiguous on SPARSEMEM without VMEMMAP.  Use pfn calculation to
handle it properly.
