[PATCH 6/8] Update the powerpc arch specific memory add/remove handlers

In order to properly hot add and remove memory for powerpc the arch
specific callouts need to now complete all of the required work to
fully add or remove the memory.

With this update we can also remove the handler for memory node add
because the powerpc arch specific memory add handler will do all the
work needed. We do still need the memory node remove handler because
systems with memory specified in the memory at XXX nodes in the device tree
we have to use the removal of the node to trigger memory hot remove.

For systems on newer firmware with memory specified in the
ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node of the device tree this is not an
issue.
