Subject: mm/sparse-vmemmap: support section-based vmemmap accounting
Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2026 16:45:56 +0800

section_nr_vmemmap_pages() can account ordinary sections and DAX sections,
but section-based vmemmap optimization keeps its compound order in struct
mem_section and retains a different number of vmemmap pages.

Teach section_nr_vmemmap_pages() to recognize section-based optimized
sections and calculate their vmemmap page count from the section order and
the HVO retained page count.
