Currently, the vmemmap for bootmem-allocated gigantic pages is populated
early in hugetlb_vmemmap_init_early().  However, the zone information is
only available after zones are initialized.  If it is later discovered
that a page spans multiple zones, the HVO mapping must be undone and
replaced with a normal mapping using vmemmap_undo_hvo().

Defer the actual vmemmap population to hugetlb_vmemmap_init_late().  At
this stage, zones are already initialized, so it can be checked if the
page is valid for HVO before deciding how to populate the vmemmap.

This allows us to remove vmemmap_undo_hvo() and the complex logic required
to rollback HVO mappings.

In hugetlb_vmemmap_init_late(), if HVO population fails or if the zones
are invalid, fall back to a normal vmemmap population.

Postponing population until hugetlb_vmemmap_init_late() also makes zone
information available from within vmemmap_populate_hvo().
