Subject: fs/proc/kcore.c: use hotplug_memory_notifier() directly
Date: Fri, 23 Sep 2022 11:33:41 +0800
Commit 76ae847497bc52 ("Documentation: raise minimum supported version of
GCC to 5.1") updated the minimum gcc version to 5.1. So the problem
mentioned in f02c69680088 ("include/linux/memory.h: implement
register_hotmemory_notifier()") no longer exist. So we can now switch to
use hotplug_memory_notifier() directly rather than
register_hotmemory_notifier().
