One comment.

Memory device might not have _EJ0/_EJD, but parent device
(like one NUMA node) might be able to be ejectable.
In this case, only the parent device has _EJ0/_EJD.
So, one more check is necessary.

(If a node is hot-added, container driver of acpi calls acpi_memhotplug
driver.)


Thanks.
