mm: memory-hotplug: enable memory hotplug to handle hugepage
Until now we can't offline memory blocks which contain hugepages because a
hugepage is considered as an unmovable page. But now with this patch
series, a hugepage has become movable, so by using hugepage migration we
can offline such memory blocks.
What's different from other users of hugepage migration is that we need to
decompose all the hugepages inside the target memory block into free buddy
pages after hugepage migration, because otherwise free hugepages remaining
in the memory block intervene the memory offlining. For this reason we
introduce new functions dissolve_free_huge_page() and
dissolve_free_huge_pages().
Other than that, what this patch does is straightforwardly to add hugepage
migration code, that is, adding hugepage code to the functions which scan
over pfn and collect hugepages to be migrated, and adding a hugepage
allocation function to alloc_migrate_target().
As for larger hugepages (1GB for x86_64), it's not easy to do hotremove
over them because it's larger than memory block. So we now simply leave
it to fail as it is.
