mm/sparse.c: fix memory leak of sparsemap_buf in aligned memory 

sparse_buffer_alloc(xsize) gets the size of memory from sparsemap_buf
after being aligned with the size.  However, the size is at least
PAGE_ALIGN(sizeof(struct page) * PAGES_PER_SECTION) and usually larger
than PAGE_SIZE.

Also, sparse_buffer_fini() only frees memory between sparsemap_buf and
sparsemap_buf_end, since sparsemap_buf may be changed by PTR_ALIGN()
first, the aligned space before sparsemap_buf is wasted and no one will
touch it.

In our ARM32 platform (without SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP)
  Sparse_buffer_init
    Reserve d359c000 - d3e9c000 (9M)
  Sparse_buffer_alloc
    Alloc   d3a00000 - d3E80000 (4.5M)
  Sparse_buffer_fini
    Free    d3e80000 - d3e9c000 (~=100k)
 The reserved memory between d359c000 - d3a00000 (~=4.4M) is unfreed.

In ARM64 platform (with SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP)

  sparse_buffer_init
    Reserve ffffffc07d623000 - ffffffc07f623000 (32M)
  Sparse_buffer_alloc
    Alloc   ffffffc07d800000 - ffffffc07f600000 (30M)
  Sparse_buffer_fini
    Free    ffffffc07f600000 - ffffffc07f623000 (140K)
 The reserved memory between ffffffc07d623000 - ffffffc07d800000
 (~=1.9M) is unfreed.

Let's explicit free redundant aligned memory.
