In register_mem_sect_under_node() the system_state’s value is checked to
detect whether the operation the call is made during boot time or during an
hot-plug operation. Unfortunately, that check against SYSTEM_BOOTING is
wrong because regular memory is registered at SYSTEM_SCHEDULING state. In
addition memory hot-plug operation can be triggered at this system state
too by the ACPI. So checking against the system state is not enough.
The consequence is that on system with interleaved node's ranges like this:
Early memory node ranges
node 1: [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x000000011fffffff]
node 2: [mem 0x0000000120000000-0x000000014fffffff]
node 1: [mem 0x0000000150000000-0x00000001ffffffff]
node 0: [mem 0x0000000200000000-0x000000048fffffff]
node 2: [mem 0x0000000490000000-0x00000007ffffffff]
This can be seen on PowerPC LPAR after multiple memory hot-plug and
hot-unplug operations are done. At the next reboot the node's memory ranges
can be interleaved and since the call to link_mem_sections() is made in
topology_init() while the system is in the SYSTEM_SCHEDULING state, the
node's id is not checked, and the sections registered to multiple nodes:
$ ls -l /sys/devices/system/memory/memory21/node*
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Aug 24 05:27 node1 -> ../../node/node1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Aug 24 05:27 node2 -> ../../node/node2
In that case, the system is able to boot but if later one of theses memory
block is hot-unplugged and then hot-plugged, the sysfs inconsistency is
detected and triggered a BUG_ON():

This patch addresses the root cause by not relying on the system_state
value to detect whether the call is due to a hot-plug operation. An extra
parameter is needed in register_mem_sect_under_node() detailing whether the
operation is due to a hot-plug operation.
Fixes: 4fbce633910e ("mm/memory_hotplug.c: make register_mem_sect_under_node() a callback of walk_memory_range()")
