mm/memory_hotplug: fix memmap_on_memory sysfs value retrieval
set_memmap_mode() stores the kernel parameter memmap mode as an integer. However, the get_memmap_mode() function utilizes param_get_bool() to fetch the value as a boolean, leading to potential endianness issue. On Big-endian architectures, the memmap_on_memory is consistently displayed as 'N' regardless of its actual status. To address this endianness problem, the solution involves obtaining the mode as an integer. This adjustment ensures the proper display of the memmap_on_memory parameter, presenting it as one of the following options: Force, Y, or N.
