Do the plumbing needed for memory hotplug on systems using radix pagetables,
borrowing from existing vmemmap and x86 code.
This passes basic verification of plugging and removing memory, but this
stuff is tricky and I'd appreciate extra scrutiny of the series for
correctness--in particular, the adaptation of remove_pagetable() from x86.
Former patch 1 is now a separate fix. This set still depends on it:

/* changelog */
v5:
* Retain pr_info() of the size used to map each address range.
* flush_tlb_kernel_range() -> radix__flush_tlb_kernel_range()
v4:
* https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1483476218-17271-1-git-send-email-arbab@linux.vnet.ibm.com
* Sent patch 1 as a standalone fix.
* Extract a common function that can be used by both radix_init_pgtable() and
radix__create_section_mapping().
* Reduce tlb flushing to one flush_tlb_kernel_range() per section, and do
less granular locking of init_mm->page_table_lock.
v3:
* https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1481831443-22761-1-git-send-email-arbab@linux.vnet.ibm.com
* Port remove_pagetable() et al. from x86 for unmapping.
* [RFC] -> [PATCH]
v2:
* https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1471449083-15931-1-git-send-email-arbab@linux.vnet.ibm.com
* Do not simply fall through to vmemmap_{create,remove}_mapping(). As Aneesh
and Michael pointed out, they are tied to CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP and only
did what I needed by luck anyway.
v1:
* https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1466699962-22412-1-git-send-email-arbab@linux.vnet.ibm.com
