From: Oscar Salvador <osalvador@xxxxxxx> Subject: mm,memory_hotplug: relax fully spanned sections check We want {online,offline}_pages to operate on whole memblocks, but memmap_on_memory will poke pageblock_nr_pages aligned holes in the beginning, which is a special case we want to allow. Relax the check to account for that case.
