[RFC 0/3] mm/hotplug: Pre-validate the address range with platform

[Anshuman Khandual]

This series adds a mechanism allowing platforms to weigh in and prevalidate
incoming address range before proceeding further with the memory hotplug.
This helps prevent potential platform errors for the given address range,
down the hotplug call chain, which inevitably fails the hotplug itself.

This mechanism was suggested by David Hildenbrand during another discussion
with respect to a memory hotplug fix on arm64 platform.

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/1600332402-30123-1-git-send-email-anshuman.khandual@arm.com/

This mechanism focuses on the addressibility aspect and not [sub] section
alignment aspect. Hence check_hotplug_memory_range() and check_pfn_span()
have been left unchanged. Wondering if all these can still be unified in
an expanded memhp_range_allowed() check, that can be called from multiple
memory hot add and remove paths.

This series applies on v5.10-rc5 and has been slightly tested on arm64.
But looking for some early feedback here.

[RFC 2/3] arm64/mm: Define arch_get_addressable_range()

[Anshuman Khandual]

This overrides arch_get_addressable_range() on arm64 platform which will be
used with recently added generic framework. It drops inside_linear_region()
and subsequent check in arch_add_memory() which are no longer required.
