Subject: [PATCH V2 2/2] mm: Extend memory hotplug API to allow memory hotplug in virtual machines

This patch contains online_page_callback and apropriate functions for
registering/unregistering online page callbacks. It allows to do some
machine specific tasks during online page stage which is required
to implement memory hotplug in virtual machines. Additionally,
__online_page_set_limits(), __online_page_increment_counters() and
__online_page_free() function was added to ease generic
hotplug operation.
