Subject: [ 03/11] mm/vmemmap: fix wrong use of virt_to_page

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jianguo Wu <wujianguo@...wei.com>

commit ae64ffcac35de0db628ba9631edf8ff34c5cd7ac upstream.

I enable CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL and CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, when doing
memory hotremove, there is a kernel BUG at arch/x86/mm/physaddr.c:20.

It is caused by free_section_usemap()->virt_to_page(), virt_to_page() is
only used for kernel direct mapping address, but sparse-vmemmap uses
vmemmap address, so it is going wrong here.
