Subject: [PATCH] memblock: do not complain about top-down allocations for
 !MEMORY_HOTREMOVE

Mike Rapoport is converting architectures from bootmem to nobootmem
allocator. While doing so for m68k Geert has noticed that he gets
a scary looking warning
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at mm/memblock.c:230

memblock: bottom-up allocation failed, memory hotunplug may be affected

The warning is basically saying that a top-down allocation can break
memory hotremove because memblock allocation is not movable. But m68k
doesn't even support MEMORY_HOTREMOVE so there is no point to warn
about it.

Make the warning conditional only to configurations that care.
