Nathan Fontenot 0c2c99b1b8 memory hotplug: Allow memory blocks to span multiple memory sections ... Update the memory sysfs code such that each sysfs memory directory is now considered a memory block that can span multiple memory sections per memory block. The default size of each memory block is SECTION_SIZE_BITS to maintain the current behavior of having a single memory section per memory block (i.e. one sysfs directory per memory section). For architectures that want to have memory blocks span multiple memory sections they need only define their own memory_block_size_bytes() routine. Update the memory hotplug documentation to reflect the new behaviors of memory blocks reflected in sysfs.
