please add explanation of this function here. If (*func) returns val other than 0,
this function will fail and returns callback's return value...right ?

Shouldn't we check lock is held here ? (VM_BUG_ON(!mutex_is_locked(&mem_hotplug_mutex);

Always returns 0 and run through all mem blocks for scan-and-retry, right ?
You need explanation here !

please explan why you repeat here .
