memory-hotplug: suppress "Trying to free nonexistent resource <XXXXXX…
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
…XXXXXXXXXX-YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY>" warning

When our x86 box calls __remove_pages(), release_mem_region() shows many
warnings.  And x86 box cannot unregister iomem_resource.

  "Trying to free nonexistent resource <XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX-YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY>"

release_mem_region() has been changed to be called in each
PAGES_PER_SECTION by commit de7f0cb ("memory hotplug: release
memory regions in PAGES_PER_SECTION chunks").  Because powerpc registers
iomem_resource in each PAGES_PER_SECTION chunk.  But when I hot add
memory on x86 box, iomem_resource is register in each _CRS not
PAGES_PER_SECTION chunk.  So x86 box unregisters iomem_resource.

The patch fixes the problem.
