mm/sparsemem: convert kmalloc_section_memmap() to populate_section_memmap()



Allow sub-section sized ranges to be added to the memmap.

populate_section_memmap() takes an explict pfn range rather than
assuming a full section, and those parameters are plumbed all the way
through to vmmemap_populate().  There should be no sub-section usage in
current deployments.  New warnings are added to clarify which memmap
allocation paths are sub-section capable.
