mm: setup pageblock_order before it's used by sparsemem
On architectures with CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE_SIZE_VARIABLE set, such as
Itanium, pageblock_order is a variable with default value of 0. It's set
to the right value by set_pageblock_order() in function
free_area_init_core().
But pageblock_order may be used by sparse_init() before free_area_init_core()
is called along path:
sparse_init()
->sparse_early_usemaps_alloc_node()
->usemap_size()
->SECTION_BLOCKFLAGS_BITS
->((1UL << (PFN_SECTION_SHIFT - pageblock_order)) *
NR_PAGEBLOCK_BITS)
The uninitialized pageblock_size will cause memory wasting because
usemap_size() returns a much bigger value then it's really needed.
For example, on an Itanium platform,
sparse_init() pageblock_order=0 usemap_size=24576
free_area_init_core() before pageblock_order=0, usemap_size=24576
free_area_init_core() after pageblock_order=12, usemap_size=8
That means 24K memory has been wasted for each section, so fix it by calling
set_pageblock_order() from sparse_init().
