From: Pasha Tatashin <Pavel.Tatashin@microsoft.com>

commit 889c695d419f19e5db52592dafbaf26143c36d1f upstream.

Deferred struct page init is needed only on systems with large amount of
physical memory to improve boot performance.  32-bit systems do not
benefit from this feature.

Jiri reported a problem where deferred struct pages do not work well with
x86-32:

We free highmem pages before their struct pages are initialized:

mem_init()
 set_highmem_pages_init()
  add_highpages_with_active_regions()
   free_highmem_page()
    .. Access uninitialized struct page here..

Because there is no reason to have this feature on 32-bit systems, just
disable it.
