memory hotplug: rearrange memory hotplug notifier
Current memory notifier has some defects yet. (Fortunately, nothing uses it.) This patch is to fix and rearrange for them. - Add information of start_pfn, nr_pages, and node id if node status is changes from/to memoryless node for callback functions. Callbacks can't do anything without those information. - Add notification going-online status. It is necessary for creating per node structure before the node's pages are available. - Move GOING_OFFLINE status notification after page isolation. It is good place for return memory like cache for callback, because returned page is not used again. - Make CANCEL events for rollingback when error occurs. - Delete MEM_MAPPING_INVALID notification. It will be not used. - Fix compile error of (un)register_memory_notifier().
