Yes it is unnecessary. Thanks!

I think we can use an inline function instead of 'early_page_ext' here. The
reason is that if CONFIG_PAGE_EXTENSION=n, 'early_page_ext' is undefined.
Thought we can #define early_page_ext as false, it is ugly.

Yes it becomes much more simple. Thanks for all your advices! I will take your
advices and send a v3 patch.
