Michal Hocko c6f03e2903 mm, memory_hotplug: remove zone restrictions
Historically we have enforced that any kernel zone (e.g ZONE_NORMAL) has
to precede the Movable zone in the physical memory range.  The purpose
of the movable zone is, however, not bound to any physical memory
restriction.  It merely defines a class of migrateable and reclaimable
memory.

There are users (e.g.  CMA) who might want to reserve specific physical
memory ranges for their own purpose.  Moreover our pfn walkers have to
be prepared for zones overlapping in the physical range already because
we do support interleaving NUMA nodes and therefore zones can interleave
as well.  This means we can allow each memory block to be associated
with a different zone.

Loosen the current onlining semantic and allow explicit onlining type on
any memblock.  That means that online_{kernel,movable} will be allowed
regardless of the physical address of the memblock as long as it is
offline of course.  This might result in moveble zone overlapping with
other kernel zones.  Default onlining then becomes a bit tricky but
still sensible.  echo online > memoryXY/state will online the given
block to

	1) the default zone if the given range is outside of any zone
	2) the enclosing zone if such a zone doesn't interleave with
	   any other zone
        3) the default zone if more zones interleave for this range

where default zone is movable zone only if movable_node is enabled
otherwise it is a kernel zone.

Here is an example of the semantic with (movable_node is not present but
it work in an analogous way). We start with following memblocks, all of
them offline:

  memory34/valid_zones:Normal Movable
  memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable
  memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable
  memory37/valid_zones:Normal Movable
  memory38/valid_zones:Normal Movable
  memory39/valid_zones:Normal Movable
  memory40/valid_zones:Normal Movable
  memory41/valid_zones:Normal Movable

Now, we online block 34 in default mode and block 37 as movable

  root@test1:/sys/devices/system/node/node1# echo online > memory34/state
  root@test1:/sys/devices/system/node/node1# echo online_movable > memory37/state
  memory34/valid_zones:Normal
  memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable
  memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable
  memory37/valid_zones:Movable
  memory38/valid_zones:Normal Movable
  memory39/valid_zones:Normal Movable
  memory40/valid_zones:Normal Movable
  memory41/valid_zones:Normal Movable

As we can see all other blocks can still be onlined both into Normal and
Movable zones and the Normal is default because the Movable zone spans
only block37 now.

  root@test1:/sys/devices/system/node/node1# echo online_movable > memory41/state
  memory34/valid_zones:Normal
  memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable
  memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable
  memory37/valid_zones:Movable
  memory38/valid_zones:Movable Normal
  memory39/valid_zones:Movable Normal
  memory40/valid_zones:Movable Normal
  memory41/valid_zones:Movable

Now the default zone for blocks 37-41 has changed because movable zone
spans that range.

  root@test1:/sys/devices/system/node/node1# echo online_kernel > memory39/state
  memory34/valid_zones:Normal
  memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable
  memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable
  memory37/valid_zones:Movable
  memory38/valid_zones:Normal Movable
  memory39/valid_zones:Normal
  memory40/valid_zones:Movable Normal
  memory41/valid_zones:Movable

Note that the block 39 now belongs to the zone Normal and so block38
falls into Normal by default as well.

For completness

  root@test1:/sys/devices/system/node/node1# for i in memory[34]?
  do
	echo online > $i/state 2>/dev/null
  done

  memory34/valid_zones:Normal
  memory35/valid_zones:Normal
  memory36/valid_zones:Normal
  memory37/valid_zones:Movable
  memory38/valid_zones:Normal
  memory39/valid_zones:Normal
  memory40/valid_zones:Movable
  memory41/valid_zones:Movable

Implementation wise the change is quite straightforward.  We can get rid
of allow_online_pfn_range altogether.  online_pages allows only offline
nodes already.  The original default_zone_for_pfn will become
default_kernel_zone_for_pfn.  New default_zone_for_pfn implements the
above semantic.  zone_for_pfn_range is slightly reorganized to implement
kernel and movable online type explicitly and MMOP_ONLINE_KEEP becomes a
catch all default behavior.
