The practical effects is that the memmap for the first unaligned section will be lost when destroy namespace to hot remove it. Because we encode the ->section_mem_map into mem_section, and get memmap from the related mem_section to free it in section_deactivate(). In fact in vmemmap, we don't need to encode the ->section_mem_map with memmap. By the way, sub-section support is only valid in vmemmap case, right? Seems yes from code, but I don't find any document to prove it. Thanks Baoquan
