This is the next version of the fixes for memory unplug on radix.
The issues and the fix are described in the actual patches.

I guess this isn't actually causing problems at runtime right now, but I
notice calls to resize_hpt_for_hotplug() from arch_add_memory() and
arch_remove_memory(), which ought to be mmu-agnostic:

int __ref arch_add_memory(int nid, u64 start, u64 size,
                          struct mhp_params *params)
{
        unsigned long start_pfn = start >> PAGE_SHIFT;
        unsigned long nr_pages = size >> PAGE_SHIFT;
        int rc;

        resize_hpt_for_hotplug(memblock_phys_mem_size());

        start = (unsigned long)__va(start);
        rc = create_section_mapping(start, start + size, nid,
                                    params->pgprot);
...

Hmm well spotted.

That does return early if the ops are not setup:

int resize_hpt_for_hotplug(unsigned long new_mem_size)
{
        unsigned target_hpt_shift;

        if (!mmu_hash_ops.resize_hpt)
                return 0;


And:

void __init hpte_init_pseries(void)
{
        ...
        if (firmware_has_feature(FW_FEATURE_HPT_RESIZE))
                mmu_hash_ops.resize_hpt = pseries_lpar_resize_hpt;

And that comes in via ibm,hypertas-functions:

        {FW_FEATURE_HPT_RESIZE,         "hcall-hpt-resize"},


But firmware is not necessarily going to add/remove that call based on
whether we're using hash/radix.



We are good there because hpte_init_pseries is only called for hash translation.

early_init_mmu()
-> hash__early_init_mmu
   -> hpte_init_pseries
      -> mmu_hash_ops.resize_hpt = pseries_lpar_resize_hpt;

So I think a follow-up patch is needed to make this more robust.

Aneesh/Bharata what platform did you test this series on? I'm curious
how this didn't break.

All the changes are tested with kvm.
