Your suggesion makes it simpler, thanks!
So I'll modify calc_direct_mapping_size() as following.
Does it make sense?

static inline unsigned long calc_direct_mapping_size(void)
{
       unsigned long size_tb, memory_tb;

       memory_tb = DIV_ROUND_UP(max_pfn << PAGE_SHIFT, 1UL << TB_SHIFT) +
               CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MEMORY_PHYSICAL_PADDING;

#ifdef CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG
       if (boot_params.max_addr) {
               unsigned long maximum_tb;

               maximum_tb = DIV_ROUND_UP(boot_params.max_addr,
                               1UL << TB_SHIFT);

               if (maximum_tb > memory_tb)
                       memory_tb = maximum_tb;
       }
#endif
       size_tb = 1 << (MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS - TB_SHIFT);

       /*
        * Adapt physical memory region size based on available memory
        */
       if (memory_tb < size_tb)
               size_tb = memory_tb;

       return size_tb;
}

Thanks,
Masa
