Could you provide some more context here.
Your comment claims that you hit an error while trying to remove a PHB,
but the fix you provided is for memory hotplug. This changes the
rturn code to zero which usually inidcates success except that
your comment states you disabled memory hotplug remove.
I think the fix we need to have here is to update the version of
pseries_remove_mem_node() when CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is disabled
to validate that the node is a memory node and return the proper value
instead of just returning -EOPNOTSUPP in all cases.
The pseries_remove_mem_node() routine when memory removed is enabled
already does this.
