[rfc patch] memory_hotplug: Check for walk_memory_resource() failure in online_pages()

[Geoff Levand]

Add a check to online_pages() to test for failure of
walk_memory_resource().  This fixes a condition where a failure
of walk_memory_resource() can lead to online_pages() returning
success without the requested pages being onlined.

I'm not entirely sure this is the proper way to handle this
condition.  Comments welcome.
