If we make "movablecore_map" take precedence over "movablecore/kernelcore",
the logic could be simplified. I think it's not so attractive to support
both "movablecore_map" and "movablecore/kernelcore" at the same time.
Hi Liu,
Thanks for you advice. :)
Memory hotplug needs different support on different hardware. We are
trying to figure out a way to satisfy as many users as we can.
Since it is a little difficult, it may take sometime. :)
But I still think we need a boot option to support it. Just a metter of
how to make it easier to use. :)
Thanks. :)

If kernelcore or movablecore is specified at the same time
with movablecore_map, movablecore_map will have higher
priority to be satisfied.
This patch will make find_zone_movable_pfns_for_nodes()
calculate zone_movable_pfn[] with the limit from
zone_movable_limit[].
