This updates the device tree manipulation routines so that memory add/remove of lmbs represented under the ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node of the device tree invokes the hotplug notifier chain. This change is needed because of the change in the way memory is represented under the ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node. All lmbs are described in the ibm,dynamic-memory property instead of having a separate node for each lmb as in previous device tree layouts. This requires the update_node() routine to check for updates to the ibm,dynamic-memory property and invoke the hotplug notifier chain. This also updates the pseries hotplug notifier to be able to gather information for lmbs represented under the ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node and have the lmbs added/removed.

Use the base address of the lmb to derive the starting page frame number instead of trying to extract it from the drc index of the lmb. The drc index should not be used for this as it will, and did, break. Until this point, systems that have had memory represented in the device tree with a node for each lmb the drc index would (luckily) closely track the base address of the lmb. For example a lmb with a drc index of 8000000a would have a base address of a0000000. This correlation allowed the current code to derive the starting page frame number from the drc inddex Device tree layouts where lmbs are represented under the ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node in the ibm,dynamic-memory property do not have this correlation between the drc index and base address of the lmb.

The powerpc kernel maintains information about logical memory blocks in the lmb.memory structure, which is initialized and updated at boot time, but not when memory is added or removed while the kernel is running. This adds a hotplug memory notifier which updates lmb.memory when memory is added or removed. This information is useful for eHEA driver to find out the memory layout and holes. NOTE: No special locking is needed for lmb_add() and lmb_remove(). Calls to these are serialized by caller. (pSeries_reconfig_chain).

Hotplug memory remove notifier for 64-bit powerpc. This gets invoked by writing to /proc/ppc64/ofdt the string "remove_node " followed by the firmware device tree pathname of the node that needs to be removed. In response, this adjusts the sections and removes sysfs entries by calling __remove_pages(). Then it calls arch-specific code to get rid of the hardware MMU mappings for the section of memory.
