If so, should the implementations be simplified, > or should we maybe do a pr_error() or something with it? No, pr_error is not really helpful. Either that path can fail and we should handle it properly - which will be hard because remove_memory cannot handle that or we should just make arch_remove_memory non-failing. I have a suspicion that this path doesn't really fail in fact. This requires a deeper inspection though. I've put that on my todo list.
