Subject: [RFC PATCH v3 1/4] mm,memory_hotplug: Add mhp_supports_memmap_on_memory

mhp_supports_memmap_on_memory is meant to be used by the caller prior
to hot-adding memory in order to figure out whether it can enable
MHP_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY or not.

Enabling MHP_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY requires:

 - memmap_on_memory_enabled is set (by mhp_memmap_on_memory kernel boot option)
 - CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP
 - architecture support for altmap
 - hot-added range spans a single memory block

Note that mhp_memmap_on_memory kernel boot option will be added in
a coming patch.

At the moment, only three architectures support passing altmap when
building the page tables: x86, POWERPC and ARM.
Define an arch_support_memmap_on_memory function on those architectures
that returns true, and define a __weak variant of it that will be used
on the others.
