Subject: [PATCH 0/1] Initialize struct pages for the full section

This patch refers to the older thread:
https://marc.info/?t=153658306400001&r=1&w=2

As suggested by Michal Hocko, instead of adjusting memory_hotplug paths,
I have changed memmap_init_zone() to initialize struct pages beyond the
zone end (if zone end is not aligned with the section boundary).

Mikhail Zaslonko (1):
  mm, memory_hotplug: Initialize struct pages for the full memory
    section
