Memory-hotplug codes for x86_64 have been implemented by patchset:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/1/9/124
While other platforms haven't been completely implemented yet.

If we enable both CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_SPARSE and CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP,
register_page_bootmem_info_node() may be buggy, which is a hotplug generic
function but falling back to call platform related function
register_page_bootmem_memmap().

Other platforms such as powerpc it's not implemented, so on such platforms,
revert them as empty as they were before.
