In __remove_section(), we locked pgdat_resize_lock when calling
sparse_remove_one_section(). This lock will disable irq. But we don't need
to lock the whole function. If we do some work to free pagetables in
free_section_usemap(), we need to call flush_tlb_all(), which need
irq enabled. Otherwise the WARN_ON_ONCE() in smp_call_function_many()
will be triggered.

If this is a bug fix, call-trace in your log and BUGFIX or -fix- in patch title
