[RFC PATCH] memory-hotplug: add sysfs immovable_mem attribute

From: Chao Fan
Date: Wed Dec 27 2017 - 07:31:05 EST


In sometimes users specify the memory region in immovable node in
some kernel commandline, such as "kernel_core" or the "immovable_mem="
in the patchset that I have send. But users don't know the memory
region. So add this interface to print it.

It will show like this: "nn@ss,nn@ss,...". "nn" means the size of memory
region, "ss" means the start position of this region.
