Introduce new function arch_remove_memory() to revert the things done
in arch_add_memory().

Note: the function for x86_64 will be implemented later. And I don't
know how to implement it for s390.

I think you need cc to other arch ML for reviewing the patch.

Why does not the function call __remove_pages()?

Thanks,
