David Hildenbrand 52219aeaf2 mm/memory_hotplug: handle memblocks only with CONFIG_ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK
The comment in add_memory_resource() is stale: hotadd_new_pgdat() will no
longer call get_pfn_range_for_nid(), as a hotadded pgdat will simply span
no pages at all, until memory is moved to the zone/node via
move_pfn_range_to_zone() - e.g., when onlining memory blocks.

The only archs that care about memblocks for hotplugged memory (either for
iterating over all system RAM or testing for memory validity) are arm64,
s390x, and powerpc - due to CONFIG_ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK.  Without
CONFIG_ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK, we can simply stop messing with memblocks.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
