[PATCH] mem-hotplug: let memblock skip the hotpluggable memory regions in __next_mem_range()

From: Xishi Qiu
Date: Mon Aug 11 2014 - 09:32:59 EST


Let memblock skip the hotpluggable memory regions in __next_mem_range(),
it is used to to prevent memblock from allocating hotpluggable memory
for the kernel at early time. The code is the same as __next_mem_range_rev().

Clear hotpluggable flag before releasing free pages to the buddy allocator.
