+Subject: mm/sparsemem: Fix ARM64 boot crash when CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME=y
+
+From: Kirill A. Shutemov <kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com>
+
+commit 629a359bdb0e0652a8227b4ff3125431995fec6e upstream.
+
+Since commit:
+
+ 83e3c48729d9 ("mm/sparsemem: Allocate mem_section at runtime for CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME=y")
+
+we allocate the mem_section array dynamically in sparse_memory_present_with_active_regions(),
+but some architectures, like arm64, don't call the routine to initialize sparsemem.
+
+Let's move the initialization into memory_present() it should cover all
+architectures.
