Subject: [PATCH v6 3/4] mm/memory_hotplug: export
 mhp_supports_memmap_on_memory()

In preparation for adding sysfs ABI to toggle memmap_on_memory semantics
for drivers adding memory, export the mhp_supports_memmap_on_memory()
helper. This allows drivers to check if memmap_on_memory support is
available before trying to request it, and display an appropriate
message if it isn't available. As part of this, remove the size argument
to this - with recent updates to allow memmap_on_memory for larger
ranges, and the internal splitting of altmaps into respective memory
blocks, the size argument is meaningless.
