Vishal Verma 42d9358252 mm/memory_hotplug: export mhp_supports_memmap_on_memory()
In preparation for adding sysfs ABI to toggle memmap_on_memory semantics
for drivers adding memory, export the mhp_supports_memmap_on_memory()
helper. This allows drivers to check if memmap_on_memory support is
available before trying to request it, and display an appropriate
message if it isn't available. As part of this, remove the size argument
to this - with recent updates to allow memmap_on_memory for larger
ranges, and the internal splitting of altmaps into respective memory
blocks, the size argument is meaningless.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
