acpi_memory_info has enabled bit and failed bit for controlling memory

The patch removes acpi_memory_info->failed bit.

Shouldn't this case (!info->enabled) continue since it is the same as
info->failed before? -EBUSY was previously used for the -EEXIST case,
which is no longer a failure case with this patchset.

You are right. It is my mitake. We need to continue to hot remove memory.
I'll update soon.
