Subject: Revert "mm/sparsemem: Allocate mem_section at runtime for CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME=y"
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
This reverts commit 4afaf6ea65acb07e151470580d89e6a2c0268610 which is
commit 83e3c48729d9ebb7af5a31a504f3fd6aff0348c4 upstream.
It breaks kdump and probably shoudn't have been included in the 4.14.y
tree at all.
