memory can't be offlined when CONFIG_MEMCG is selected.
For example: there is a memory device on node 1. The address range
is [1G, 1.5G). You will find 4 new directories memory8, memory9, memory10,
and memory11 under the directory /sys/devices/system/memory/.
If CONFIG_MEMCG is selected, we will

For removing memmap region of sparse-vmemmap which is allocated bootmem,
memmap region of sparse-vmemmap needs to be registered by get_page_bootmem().
So the patch searches pages of virtual mapping and registers the pages by

We remove the memory like this:
1. lock memory hotplug
2. offline a memory block
3. unlock memory hotplug
4. repeat 1-3 to offline all memory blocks
5. lock memory hotplug
6. remove memory(TODO)
7. unlock memory hotplug
All memory blocks

All pages of virtual mapping in removed memory cannot be freed, since some pages
used as PGD/PUD includes not only removed memory but also other memory. So the
patch checks whether page can be freed or not.
How to check whether page can be

Currently __remove_section for SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP does nothing. But even if
we use SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, we can unregister the memory_section.
So the patch add unregister_memory_section() into __remove_section().

When (hot)adding memory into system, /sys/firmware/memmap/X/{end, start, type}
sysfs files are created. But there is no code to remove these files. The patch
implements the function to remove them.
Note: The code does not free
offlining memory blocks and checking whether memory blocks are offlined
are very similar. This patch introduces a new function to remove
redundant codes.

For hot removing memory, we sholud remove page table about the memory.

When a memory is added, we update zone's and pgdat's start_pfn and
spanned_pages in the function __add_zone(). So we should revert them
when the memory is removed.
The patch adds a new function __remove_zone() to do this.

This patch introduces a new function try_offline_node() to
remove sysfs file of node when all memory sections of this
node are removed. If some memory sections of this node are
not removed, this function does nothing.

We call hotadd_new_pgdat() to allocate memory to store node_data. So we

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As result the __dev*
markings will be going away.
Remove use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata, __devinitconst,

This patch initializes IOMMU groups based on the IOMMU
configuration discovered during the PCI scan on POWERNV
(POWER non virtualized) platform. The IOMMU groups are
to be used later by VFIO driver (PCI pass through).
It also implements an API for mapping/unmapping pages for
guest PCI drivers and
VFIO implements platform independent stuff such as
a PCI driver, BAR access (via read/write on a file descriptor
or direct mapping when possible) and IRQ signaling.
The platform dependent part includes IOMMU initialization
and handling. This patch implements an IOMMU driver for VFIO
which does
