Hi Andrew,

The issue can be reproduced if CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is not set
$ grep CONFIG_SPARSEMEM .config
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_MANUAL=y
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM=y
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME=y
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP_ENABLE=y
# CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is not set

$
./reproduce-yocto-vm-yocto-23:20200619042212:x86_64-randconfig-r025-20200618:5.3.0-11836-gdb57e98d87908:1
vmlinuz-5.3.0-11836-gdb57e98d87908
early console in setup code

and kernel can boot if enable CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP
$ grep CONFIG_SPARSEMEM .config
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_MANUAL=y
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM=y
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME=y
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP_ENABLE=y
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP=y
