I would definetely add subsection_mask_set() and above change to Patch#3.
I think it suits there better than here.

I do not really like this.
Sub-section scheme is only available on CONFIG_SPARSE_VMEMMAP, so I would rather
have two internal __section_{activate,deactivate} functions for sparse-vmemmap and
sparse-non-vmemmap.
That way, we can hide all detail implementation and sub-section dance behind
the __section_{activate,deactivate} functions.
