It's not Exynos code which causes the problem. Sparsemem initialization 
relies on the fact that initial amount of structures to described memory 
equals to maximum section size which is defined per arch (e.g. 
ARCH_EXYNOS).

The kernel panics early on NULL pointer dereference in memory 
initialization.
