From: Oscar Salvador
Date: Mon Jun 16 2025 - 09:53:05 EST


There no users left of status_change_nid, so drop it from memory_notify
struct.

- start_pfn is start_pfn of online/offline memory.
- nr_pages is # of pages of online/offline memory.
-- status_change_nid is set node id when N_MEMORY of nodemask is (will be)
- set/clear. It means a new(memoryless) node gets new memory by online and a
- node loses all memory. If this is -1, then nodemask status is not changed.

- If status_changed_nid* >= 0, callback should create/discard structures for the
- node if necessary.

It is possible to get notified for MEM_CANCEL_ONLINE without having been notified
for MEM_GOING_ONLINE, and the same applies to MEM_CANCEL_OFFLINE and
