mm: extend memory hotplug API to allow memory hotplug in virtual machines
This patch contains online_page_callback and apropriate functions for
registering/unregistering online page callbacks. It allows to do some
machine specific tasks during online page stage which is required to
implement memory hotplug in virtual machines. Currently this patch is
required by latest memory hotplug support for Xen balloon driver patch
which will be posted soon.
Additionally, originial online_page() function was splited into
following functions doing "atomic" operations:
- __online_page_set_limits() - set new limits for memory management code,
- __online_page_increment_counters() - increment totalram_pages and totalhigh_pages,
- __online_page_free() - free page to allocator.
It was done to:
- not duplicate existing code,
- ease hotplug code devolpment by usage of well defined interface,
- avoid stupid bugs which are unavoidable when the same code
(by design) is developed in many places.
