Subject: [PATCH 03/11] numa, acpi, memory-hotplug: Add movablemem_map=acpi boot option.

Since the kernel pages cannot be migrated, if we want a memory device
hotpluggable, we have to set all the memory on it as ZONE_MOVABLE.

This patch adds a boot option movablemem_map=acpi to inform the kernel
to use Hot Pluggable bit in SRAT to determine which memory device is
hotpluggable.
