Coherent device memory support has been experimented around on POWER platform with simulations and QEMU changes. This series contains patches which can be classified into three categories. (1) Memory less node hot plug support (2) Identifying coherent device nodes during NUMA init (3) Debug patches to observe zonelists information (4) Test drivers and scripts Patch (2) could have been part of the RFC series but because of the dependency on patch (1), it goes here. Now lets look at the how all these components work.
