This reverts commit ec999072442a ("powerpc/pseries: Auto-online
hotplugged memory"), and 9dc512819e4b ("powerpc: Fix unused function
warning 'lmb_to_memblock'").
Using the auto-online acpability does online added memory but does not
update the associated device struct to indicate that the memory is
online. This causes the pseries memory DLPAR code to fail when trying to
remove a LMB that was previously removed and added back. This happens
when validating that the LMB is removable.
This patch reverts to the previous behavior of calling device_online()
to online the LMB when it is DLPAR added and moves the lmb_to_memblock()
routine out of CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE now that we call it for add.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
