Subject: [PATCH v2 3/5] mm/memory_hotplug: use pfn calculation in place of direct struct page manipulation.

When dealing with hugetlb pages, manipulating struct page pointers
directly can get to wrong struct page, since struct page is not guaranteed
to be contiguous on SPARSEMEM without VMEMMAP. Use pfn calculation to
handle it properly.
