I cleaned this up a bit:

: Subject: mm: memory hot-add: memory can not been added to movable zone
: 
: When memory is hot added, should_add_memory_movable() always returns 0
: because the movable zone is empty, so the memory that was hot added will
: add to the normal zone even if we want to remove the memory.
: 
: So we change should_add_memory_movable(): if the user config
: CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE it will return 1 when the movable zone is empty.

But I don't understand the "even if we want to remove the memory". 
This is hot-add, not hot-remove.  What do you mean here?
