Subject: [PATCH 0/2] arm64/hotplug: Process MEM_OFFLINE and MEM_CANCEL_OFFLINE events

This series improves arm64 memory event notifier (hot remove) robustness by
enabling it to detect potential problems (if any) in the future. But first
it enumerates memory isolation failure reasons that can be sent across a
notifier. This series does not go beyond arm64 to explore if these failure
reason codes could be used in other existing registered memory notifiers.
Please do let me know if there is any other potential use cases, will be
happy to incorporate next time around. Also should we add similar failure
reasons for online_pages() as well ?

This series has been tested on arm64, boot tested on x86 and build tested
on multiple other platforms.

This series applies on v5.7-rc1.
