From: Oscar Salvador <osalvador@xxxxxxx> Hi, I wanted to give it a try and do a small cleanup in the memhotplug's code. A lot more could be done, but I wanted to start somewhere. I tried to unify/remove duplicated code. The following is what this patchset does: 1) add_memory_resource() has code to allocate a node in case it was offline. Since try_online_node has some code for that as well, I just made add_memory_resource() to use that so we can remove duplicated code.. This is better explained in patch 1/4. 2) register_mem_sect_under_node() will be called only from link_mem_sections() 3) Get rid of link_mem_sections() in favour of walk_memory_range() with a callback to register_mem_sect_under_node() 4) Drop unnecessary checks from register_mem_sect_under_node() I have done some tests and I could not see anything broken because of this patchset.
