Michal Hocko 7960509329 mm, memory_hotplug: print reason for the offlining failure
The memory offlining failure reporting is inconsistent and insufficient.
Some error paths simply do not report the failure to the log at all.  When
we do report there are no details about the reason of the failure and
there are several of them which makes memory offlining failures hard to
debug.

Make sure that the
	memory offlining [mem %#010llx-%#010llx] failed
message is printed for all failures and also provide a short textual
reason for the failure e.g.

[ 1984.506184] rac1 kernel: memory offlining [mem 0x82600000000-0x8267fffffff] failed due to signal backoff

this tells us that the offlining has failed because of a signal pending
aka user intervention.

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.
