Subject: [PATCH v1 6/9] x86, mm, numa, acpi: Support getting hotplug info from SRAT.

We now provide an option for users who don't want to specify physical
memory address in kernel commandline.

        /*
         * For movablemem_map=acpi:
         *
         * SRAT:                |_____| |_____| |_________| |_________| ......
         * node id:                0       1         1           2
         * hotpluggable:           n       y         y           n
         * movablemem_map:              |_____| |_________|
         *
         * Using movablemem_map, we can prevent memblock from allocating memory
         * on ZONE_MOVABLE at boot time.
         */

So user just specify movablemem_map=acpi, and the kernel will use hotpluggable
info in SRAT to determine which memory ranges should be set as ZONE_MOVABLE.

NOTE: Using this way will cause NUMA performance down because the whole node
      will be set as ZONE_MOVABLE, and kernel cannot use memory on it.
      If users don't want to lose NUMA performance, just don't use it.
