[PATCH v3 5/5] mm: enable CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE on powerpc

From: Reza Arbab
Date: Sun Sep 25 2016 - 14:38:06 EST


To create a movable node, we need to hotplug all of its memory into
ZONE_MOVABLE.

Note that to do this, auto_online_blocks should be off. Since the memory
will first be added to the default zone, we must explicitly use
online_movable to online.

Because such a node contains no normal memory, can_online_high_movable()
will only allow us to do the onlining if CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE is set.
Enable the use of this config option on PPC64 platforms.
