Here the patch would look like this:

Subject: [PATCH] mm: remove __paginginit

__paginginit is the same thing as __meminit except for platforms without
sparsemem, there it is defined as __init.

Remove __paginginit and use __meminit. Use __ref in one single function
that merges __meminit and __init sections: setup_usemap().
