[RFC PATCH v4 7/13] memory-hotplug : remove_memory calls __remove_pages

From: Yasuaki Ishimatsu
Date: Wed Jul 18 2012 - 06:12:24 EST


The patch adds __remove_pages() to remove_memory(). Then the range of
phys_start_pfn argument and nr_pages argument in __remove_pagse() may
have different zone. So zone argument is removed from __remove_pages()
and __remove_pages() caluculates zone in each section.

When CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is defined, there is no way to remove a memmap.
So __remove_section only calls unregister_memory_section().
