In __remove_section(), we locked pgdat_resize_lock when calling
sparse_remove_one_section().  This lock will disable irq.  But we don't
need to lock the whole function.  If we do some work to free pagetables
in free_section_usemap(), we need to call flush_tlb_all(), which need
irq enabled.  Otherwise the WARN_ON_ONCE() in smp_call_function_many()
will be triggered.

If we lock the whole sparse_remove_one_section(), then we come to this call trace:
