Zhang Yanfei 81556b0252 mm/sparsemem: fix a bug in free_map_bootmem when CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP
We pass the number of pages which hold page structs of a memory section
to free_map_bootmem().  This is right when !CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP but
wrong when CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP.  When CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, we
should pass the number of pages of a memory section to free_map_bootmem.

So the fix is removing the nr_pages parameter.  When
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, we directly use the prefined marco
PAGES_PER_SECTION in free_map_bootmem.  When !CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP,
we calculate page numbers needed to hold the page structs for a memory
section and use the value in free_map_bootmem().

This was found by reading the code.  And I have no machine that support
memory hot-remove to test the bug now.
