After a LPM, the device tree node ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory may be updated by the hypervisor in the case the NUMA topology of the LPAR's memory is updated. This is handled by the kernel, but the memory's node is not updated because there is no way to move a memory block between nodes from the Linux kernel point of view. If later a memory block is added or removed, drmem_update_dt() is called and it is overwriting the DT node ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory to match the added or removed LMB. But the LMB's associativity node has not been updated after the DT node update and thus the node is overwritten by the Linux's topology instead of the hypervisor one. Introduce a hook called when the ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node is updated to force an update of the LMB's associativity. However, ignore the call to that hook when the update has been triggered by drmem_update_dt(). Because, in that case, the LMB tree has been used to set the DT property and thus it doesn't need to be updated back. Since drmem_update_dt() is called under the protection of the device_hotplug_lock and the hook is called in the same context, use a simple boolean variable to detect that call.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
