With memmap on memory, some architecture needs more details w.r.t altmap
such as base_pfn, end_pfn, etc to unmap vmemmap memory. Instead of
computing them again when we remove a memory block, embed vmem_altmap
details in struct memory_block if we are using memmap on memory block
feature.

No functional change in this patch

I'm wondering if we should instead let the caller do the alloc/free. So we would alloc
int the caller and would only store the pointer.

Before removing the memory block, we would clear the pointer and free it in the caller.

IOW, when removing a memory block and we still have an altmap set, something would be wrong.

See below on try_remove_memory() handling.

Instead of that, I suggest (whitespace damage expected):
