This unbounded increase in newsize makes me nervous - we should be
bounded by the current size of the HPT at least. In practice we
should be fine, since the resize should always succeed by the time we
reach our current HPT size, but that's far from obvious from this
point in the code.
And... you're doubling newsize which is a value which might not be a
power of 2. I'm wondering if there's an edge case where this could
actually cause us to skip the current size and erroneously resize to
one bigger than we have currently.

This wrapper doesn't seem useful.

This doesn't look right. memory_add_by_index() is adding a *single*
LMB, I think using drmem_info->n_lmbs here means you're counting this
as adding again as much memory as you already have hotplugged.

I don't see memory_batch_expand_prepare() suppressing any existing HPT
resizes. Won't this just resize to the right size for the full add,
then resize several times again as we perform the add? Or.. I guess
that will be suppressed by patch 1/3. That's seems kinda fragile,
though.
