acpi, memory-hotplug: extend movablemem_map ranges to the end of node
When implementing movablemem_map boot option, we introduced an array
movablemem_map.map[] to store the memory ranges to be set as
ZONE_MOVABLE.
Since ZONE_MOVABLE is the latst zone of a node, if user didn't specify
the whole node memory range, we need to extend it to the node end so
that we can use it to prevent memblock from allocating memory in the
ranges user didn't specify.
We now implement movablemem_map boot option like this:
/*
* For movablemem_map=nn[KMG]@ss[KMG]:
*
* SRAT: |_____| |_____| |_________| |_________| ......
* node id: 0 1 1 2
* user specified: |__| |___|
* movablemem_map: |___| |_________| |______| ......
*
* Using movablemem_map, we can prevent memblock from allocating memory
* on ZONE_MOVABLE at boot time.
*
* NOTE: In this case, SRAT info will be ingored.
*/
