Subject: mm/sparsemem: pfn_to_page is not valid yet on SPARSEMEM
When we use SPARSEMEM instead of SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, pfn_to_page()
doesn't work before sparse_init_one_section() is called. This leads to a
crash when hotplug memory:

We should use memmap as it did.
On x86 the impact is limited to x86_32 builds, or x86_64 configurations
that override the default setting for SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP.
