There are 3 functions in the kernel:
1. add_memory()
2. online_pages()
3. remove_memory()
So I think offline_pages() is better th
remove_memory() does not remove memory but just offlines memory. The patch
changes name of it to offline_memory().

The kernel is never going to physically remove the memory itself, so I
don't see the big problem with calling it remove_memory()
