Subject: [PATCH 2/3] memory-hotplug: more general validation of zone during online

When memory is onlined, we are only able to rezone from ZONE_MOVABLE to
ZONE_KERNEL, or from (ZONE_MOVABLE - 1) to ZONE_MOVABLE.

To be more flexible, use the following criteria instead; to online memory
from zone X into zone Y,

* Any zones between X and Y must be unused.
* If X is lower than Y, the onlined memory must lie at the end of X.
* If X is higher than Y, the onlined memory must lie at the start of X.

Add zone_can_shift() to make this determination.
