Use memory groups to improve our "auto-movable" onlining policy: 1. For static memory groups (e.g., a DIMM), online a memory block MOVABLE only if all other memory blocks in the group are either MOVABLE or could be onlined MOVABLE. A DIMM will either be MOVABLE or not, not a mixture. 2. For dynamic memory groups (e.g., a virtio-mem device), online a memory block MOVABLE only if all other memory blocks inside the current unit are either MOVABLE or could be onlined MOVABLE. For a virtio-mem device with a device block size with 512 MiB, all 128 MiB memory blocks wihin a 512 MiB unit will either be MOVABLE or not, not a mixture. We have to pass the memory group to zone_for_pfn_range() to take the memory group into account. Note: for now, there seems to be no compelling reason to make this behavior configurable.

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.
