memory hotplug: Hot-add with sparsemem-vmemmap
This patch is to avoid panic when memory hot-add is executed with
sparsemem-vmemmap. Current vmemmap-sparsemem code doesn't support memory
hot-add. Vmemmap must be populated when hot-add. This is for
2.6.23-rc2-mm2.
Todo: # Even if this patch is applied, the message "[xxxx-xxxx] potential
offnode page_structs" is displayed. To allocate memmap on its node,
memmap (and pgdat) must be initialized itself like chicken and
egg relationship.
# vmemmap_unpopulate will be necessary for followings.
- For cancel hot-add due to error.
- For unplug.
