/usr/lib/udev/rules.d/40-vm-hotadd.rules:9 Failed to write
ATTR{/sys/devices/system/memory/memory7/state}, ignoring: Invalid
argument

This isn't because the file doesn't exist, because the udev rule checks
for its existence before trying to write to it.  The error is because
the kernel is rejecting the write to its state file for some reason.  In
a really quick test, it seems like this is because it's already online;
the kernel default has been CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE=y since
at least 4.15.

I think the error message is harmless, since the memory is already
online, but the udev rule should be fixed to check if it's offline
before actually trying to online it.

Can you test with the systemd from this ppa to see if the error message is gone?

Also please make sure all your memory and cpus are online after
booting/hotadding.

Note that I might just remove this rule entirely, since it really
shouldn't be needed anymore, now that the kernel default is to online
hotplugged cpus/memory, but I want to verify that first.
