Nack, pgdat_resize_unlock() is unnecessary if irqs are known to be
disabled.
All this patch does is is indicate that rather than using node_size_lock
directly (as it won't be around without CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG), one
should use the pgdat_resize_[un]lock() helper macros.
And yes, _strictly_ speaking, one could want to avoid the
spin_lock_irqsave/restore that pgdat_resize_*lock() does.
Right now we don't provide helpers that do that. Do you see a need for them?
