[PATCH v9 01/12] mm/sparsemem: Introduce struct mem_section_usage

[Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>]

Towards enabling memory hotplug to track partial population of a
section, introduce 'struct mem_section_usage'.

A pointer to a 'struct mem_section_usage' instance replaces the existing
pointer to a 'pageblock_flags' bitmap. Effectively it adds one more
'unsigned long' beyond the 'pageblock_flags' (usemap) allocation to
house a new 'subsection_map' bitmap.  The new bitmap enables the memory
hot{plug,remove} implementation to act on incremental sub-divisions of a
section.

The default SUBSECTION_SHIFT is chosen to keep the 'subsection_map' no
larger than a single 'unsigned long' on the major architectures.
Alternatively an architecture can define ARCH_SUBSECTION_SHIFT to
override the default PMD_SHIFT. Note that PowerPC needs to use
ARCH_SUBSECTION_SHIFT to workaround PMD_SHIFT being a non-constant
expression on PowerPC.

The primary motivation for this functionality is to support platforms
that mix "System RAM" and "Persistent Memory" within a single section,
or multiple PMEM ranges with different mapping lifetimes within a single
section. The section restriction for hotplug has caused an ongoing saga
of hacks and bugs for devm_memremap_pages() users.

Beyond the fixups to teach existing paths how to retrieve the 'usemap'
from a section, and updates to usemap allocation path, there are no
expected behavior changes.
