Subject: [PATCH v3 07/12] mm: fix register_new_memory() zone type detection

In preparation for sub-section memory hotplug support, remove a
dependency on ->section_mem_map being populated. In SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP=y
configurations pfn_to_page() does not use ->section_mem_map. The
sub-section hotplug support relies on this fact and skips initializing
it. Without ->section_mem_map populated, or aligned to section boundary,
conversions of mem_section instances to zones is not possible.

So, this removes a false dependency on a structure field that will only
be valid in the SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP=n case, and only used for
pfn_to_page() (and similar) operations.
