The memmap_context enum is used to detect whether a memory operation is due
to a hot-add operation or happening at boot time.

Make it general to the hotplug operation and rename it as meminit_context.

There is no functional change introduced by this patch

This is not the correct way to submit patches for inclusion in the
stable kernel tree.  Please read:
     https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/stable-kernel-rules.html
for how to do this properly.

Hi Greg,

I'm sorry, I read that document few days ago before sending the series and again this morning, but I can't figure out what I missed (following option 1).

Should the "Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" tag be on each patch of the series even if the whole series has been sent to stable ?

Should the whole series sent again (v4) instead of sending a fix as a reply to ?

Thanks,
Laurent.
