mm, x86: remove MEMORY_HOTPLUG_RESERVE related code
after: | commit b263295dbffd33b0fbff670720fa178c30e3392a | Author: Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com> | Date: Wed Jan 30 13:30:47 2008 +0100 | | x86: 64-bit, make sparsemem vmemmap the only memory model we don't have MEMORY_HOTPLUG_RESERVE anymore. Historically, x86-64 had an architecture-specific method for memory hotplug whereby it scanned the SRAT for physical memory ranges that could be potentially used for memory hot-add later. By reserving those ranges without physical memory, the memmap would be allocated and left dormant until needed. This depended on the DISCONTIG memory model which has been removed so the code implementing HOTPLUG_RESERVE is now dead. This patch removes the dead code used by MEMORY_HOTPLUG_RESERVE.
