Extend the DSDT to include methods for handling memory hot-add and hot-remove
notifications and memory device status requests. These functions are called
from the memory device SSDT methods.

Eject has only been tested with level gpe event, but will be changed to edge gpe
event soon, according to recent master patch for other ACPI hotplug events.

MPE is write only and only one memslot is ejected at a time. Why 256 bit-field is here then?
Could we use just 1 byte and write a slot number into it and save some io address space this way?

It's more a suggestion: move it a bit farther to allow maybe 1024 cpus in the future.
That will prevent compatibility a headache, if we decide to expand support to more then
256 cpus.

Or event better to make this address configurable in run-time and build this var along
with SSDT (converting along the way all other hard-coded io ports to the same generic
run-time interface). This wish is out of scope of this patch-set, but what
do you think about the idea?
