[PATCH] mm: page_ext: allocate page extension though first PFN is invalid

[Jaewon Kim <jaewon31.kim@samsung.com>]

online_page_ext and page_ext_init allocate page_ext for each section, but
they do not allocate if the first PFN is !pfn_present(pfn) or
!pfn_valid(pfn).

Though the first page is not valid, page_ext could be useful for other
pages in the section. But checking all PFNs in a section may be time
consuming job. Let's check each (section count / 16) PFN, then prepare
page_ext if any PFN is present or valid.
