This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged

Subject: x86/vmemmap: handle unpopulated sub-pmd ranges
When the size of a struct page is not multiple of 2MB, sections do not
span a PMD anymore and so when populating them some parts of the PMD will
remain unused. Because of this, PMDs will be left behind when
depopulating sections since remove_pmd_table() thinks that those unused
parts are still in use.
Fix this by marking the unused parts with PAGE_UNUSED, so memchr_inv()
will do the right thing and will let us free the PMD when the last user of
it is gone.
This patch is based on a similar patch by David Hildenbrand:
