Only when SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is set, memmap returned from
section_activate() points to sub-section page struct. Otherwise, memmap
already points to the whole section page struct.

This means only for SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, we need to adjust memmap for
sub-section case.

Aren't we assured that start_pfn is always section aligned in the
SPARSEMEM case? That's the role of check_pfn_span(). Does the change
have a runtime impact or is this just theoretical?

You are right, I missed this point.
