Subject: [PATCH 3/3] mm/memory_hotplug: Cleanup unregister_mem_sect_under_nodes

From: Oscar Salvador <osalvador@...e.de>

With the assumption that the relationship between
memory_block <-> node is 1:1, we can refactor this function a bit.

This assumption is being taken from register_mem_sect_under_node()
code.

register_mem_sect_under_node() takes the mem_blk's nid, and compares it
to the pfn's nid we are checking.
If they match, we go ahead and link both objects.
Once done, we just return.

So, the relationship between memory_block <-> node seems to stand.

Currently, unregister_mem_sect_under_nodes() defines a nodemask_t
which is being checked in the loop to see if we have already unliked certain node.
But since a memory_block can only belong to a node, we can drop the nodemask
and the check within the loop.

If we find a match between the mem_block->nid and the nid of the
pfn we are checking, we unlink the objects and return, as unlink the objects
once is enough.
