How about this one ? as a start step ?
I have no test environment. So please take this as a sample.

Now, MEMORY_HOTPLUG and HIBERNATION is mutually exclusive in Kconfig.
That's because
	- memory hotplug changes pgdat/zone/memmap range.
	- hibernation countes # of memory based on pgdate/zone/memmap.

This patch adds rwsemaphore for making them not to run at the same time.

IIUC, add_memory() is called from following places.
    - probe interface
    - acpi handler
It seems both can sleep. (acpi handler uses sleepable memory allocator etc...)

online/offline handlers also sleeps.

Anyway, the most difficult thing is how to test this.
