[RFC PATCH 2/2] mm, memory_hotplug: drop CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE

[Michal Hocko <mhocko@kernel.org>]

From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com>

20b2f52b73fe ("numa: add CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE for movable-dedicated
node") has introduced CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE without a good explanation on
why it is actually useful. It makes a lot of sense to make movable node
semantic opt in but we already have that because the feature has to be
explicitly enabled on the kernel command line. A config option on top
only makes the configuration space larger without a good reason. It also
adds an additional ifdefery that pollutes the code. Just drop the config
option and make it de-facto always enabled. This shouldn't introduce any
change to the semantic.

-	  Allow a node to have only movable memory.  Pages used by the kernel,
-	  such as direct mapping pages cannot be migrated.  So the corresponding
-	  memory device cannot be hotplugged.  This option allows the following
-	  two things:
-	  - When the system is booting, node full of hotpluggable memory can
-	  be arranged to have only movable memory so that the whole node can
-	  be hot-removed. (need movable_node boot option specified).
-	  - After the system is up, the option allows users to online all the
-	  memory of a node as movable memory so that the whole node can be
-	  hot-removed.
-
-	  Users who don't use the memory hotplug feature are fine with this
-	  option on since they don't specify movable_node boot option or they
-	  don't online memory as movable.
-
-	  Say Y here if you want to hotplug a whole node.
-	  Say N here if you want kernel to use memory on all nodes evenly.
