The patch adds __remove_pages() to remove_memory(). Then the range of phys_start_pfn argument and nr_pages argument in __remove_pagse() may have different zone. So zone argument is removed from __remove_pages() and __remove_pages() caluculates zone in each section. When CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is defined, there is no way to remove a memmap. So __remove_section only calls unregister_memory_section().
