Revert "mm: fix initialization of struct page for holes in memory layout"

This reverts commit d3921cb8.

Chris Wilson reports that it causes boot problems:

 "We have half a dozen or so different machines in CI that are silently
  failing to boot, that we believe is bisected to this patch"

and the CI team confirmed that a revert fixed the issues.

The cause is unknown for now, so let's revert it.

*
* But, there could be struct pages that correspond to holes in
* memblock.memory. This can happen because of the following reasons:
* - phyiscal memory bank size is not necessarily the exact multiple of the
* arbitrary section size
* - early reserved memory may not be listed in memblock.memory
* - memory layouts defined with memmap= kernel parameter may not align
* nicely with memmap sections
* Only struct pages that are backed by physical memory are zeroed and
* initialized by going through __init_single_page(). But, there are some
* struct pages which are reserved in memblock allocator and their fields
* may be accessed (for example page_to_pfn() on some configuration accesses
* flags). We must explicitly initialize those struct pages.
*
* Explicitly initialize those struct pages so that:
* - PG_Reserved is set
* - zone link is set accorging to the architecture constrains
* - node is set to node id of the next populated region except for the
* trailing hole where last node id is used
* This function also addresses a similar issue where struct pages are left
* uninitialized because the physical address range is not covered by
* memblock.memory or memblock.reserved. That could happen when memblock
* layout is manually configured via memmap=, or when the highest physical
* address (max_pfn) does not end on a section boundary.
