I've decided to drop this patch. My main motivation was to simplify
the hotplug workflow/ The situation is more hairy than I expected,
though. On one hand all zones should be initialized early during the
hotplug in add_memory_resource but direct users of arch_add_memory will
need this to be called I suspect. Let's just keep the current status quo
and clean up it later. It is not really needed for this series.
