LGTM

I am questioning the stability of the offlining test, though.
Offlining a random memory block can fail easily, because "->removable" is not
expressive:
# tools/testing/selftests/memory-hotplug/mem-on-off-test.sh
Test scope: 2% hotplug memory
online all hot-pluggable memory in offline state:
SKIPPED - no hot-pluggable memory in offline state
offline 2% hot-pluggable memory in online state
trying to offline 2 out of 96 memory block(s):
online->offline memory0
tools/testing/selftests/memory-hotplug/mem-on-off-test.sh: line 78: echo: write error: Invalid argument
offline_memory_expect_success 0: unexpected fail
online->offline memory10
online->offline memory11
I guess this test will almost always fail nowadays.
