Subject: mm, memory_hotplug: fix MMOP_ONLINE_KEEP behavior

Heiko Carstens has noticed that the MMOP_ONLINE_KEEP is broken currently
$ grep . memory3?/valid_zones
memory34/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory37/valid_zones:Normal Movable

$ echo online_movable > memory34/state
$ grep . memory3?/valid_zones
memory34/valid_zones:Movable
memory35/valid_zones:Movable
memory36/valid_zones:Movable
memory37/valid_zones:Movable

$ echo online > memory36/state
$ grep . memory3?/valid_zones
memory34/valid_zones:Movable
memory36/valid_zones:Normal
memory37/valid_zones:Movable

so we have effectively punched a hole into the movable zone.  The problem
is that move_pfn_range() check for MMOP_ONLINE_KEEP is wrong.  It only
checks whether the given range is already part of the movable zone which
is not the case here as only memory34 is in the zone.  Fix this by using
allow_online_pfn_range(..., MMOP_ONLINE_KERNEL) if that is false then we
can be sure that movable onlining is the right thing to do.

Fixes: "mm, memory_hotplug: do not associate hotadded memory to zones until online"
