David Hildenbrand 94c8945376 virtio-mem: check against mhp_get_pluggable_range() which memory we can hotplug
Right now, we only check against MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS - but turns out there
are more restrictions of which memory we can actually hotplug, especially
om arm64 or s390x once we support them: we might receive something like
-E2BIG or -ERANGE from add_memory_driver_managed(), stopping device
operation.

So, check right when initializing the device which memory we can add,
warning the user.  Try only adding actually pluggable ranges: in the worst
case, no memory provided by our device is pluggable.

In the usual case, we expect all device memory to be pluggable, and in
corner cases only some memory at the end of the device-managed memory
region to not be pluggable.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
