Subject: [PATCH 0/4] powerpc/mm: Cleanups to hotplug memory path

The cleanups to the (guest side) memory hotplug paths came up in the
context of allowing hash page table resizing for PAPR guests.
However, they stand on their own and can improve reporting of several
error conditions that could already happen.

Please apply.

  powerpc/mm: Clean up error handling for htab_remove_mapping
  powerpc/mm: Handle removing maybe-present bolted HPTEs
  powerpc/mm: Clean up memory hotplug failure paths
  powerpc/mm: Split hash page table sizing heuristic into a helper
