Subject: mm: memory hot-add: memory can not be added to movable zone by default
After the user config CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE and movable_node kernel option,
when the memory is hot added, should_add_memory_movable() returns 0
because all zones including movable zone are empty. So the memory that
was hot added will be added to the normal zone and the normal zone will be
created first. But we want the whole node to be added to movable zone by
default.
So we change should_add_memory_movable(): if the user config
CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE and movable_node kernel option it will always return 1
and all zones are empty at the same time, so that the movable zone will be
created first and then the whole node will be added to movable zone by
default. If we want the node to be added to normal zone, we can do it as
follows: "echo online_kernel > /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryXXX/state"
