Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] Refactoring for remove_memory_section/unregister_mem_sect_under_nodes

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

This patchset does some cleanups and refactoring in the memory-hotplug code.

The first and the second patch are pretty straightforward, as they
only remove unused arguments/checks.

The third one refactors unregister_mem_sect_under_nodes.
This is needed to have a proper fallback in case we could not allocate
memory. (details can be seen in patch3).

Oscar Salvador (3):
  mm/memory-hotplug: Drop unused args from remove_memory_section
  mm/memory_hotplug: Drop mem_blk check from
    unregister_mem_sect_under_nodes
  mm/memory_hotplug: Refactor unregister_mem_sect_under_nodes
