The default number of memory_block_sections per memory block is 1. The
memory_block_size() routine (defined as __weak) sets the size of the
memory block, and thus the number of memory_block_sections.
The current view of memory in sysfs where each directory covers a single
memory section should still hold for everyone, unless a arch defines
their own memory_section_size routine to alter the behavior.

The default is 1. This is determined in the get_memory_block_size() which
is called from the memory sysfs init routine.

I went with list_for_each_safe() here since I am not holding the mutex
while walking the list. Perhaps this should be changed to take the
mutex and use list_for_each_entry().

We could print it as a bitmap, but I think it would be overkill. The
memory add/remove routines work on a memory_block such that all
memory_block_sections in the memory_block are added/removed as a whole.
Given this, I figured we only needed to know if the entire memory_block
is removable.

Correct. Add/remove actions will work on a memory_block as a whole.

I am not attached to a particular name for the directories. I think
keeping the memory%d, where %d is the starting id makes the code that splits
the directory cleaner.
In a later patch I add a new file for each directory that has the ending
id in it so users can easily determine the start and end id's of the
memory block.

I don't think so, hopefully someone will speak up if this causes an issue.
