Thanks for your feedback. I get the part about memory hotplug here but
using memory_add still seems a little odd as it doesn't truly reflect
what this api is doing.
However, I agree that my current suggestion
may not be the perfect choice for the name, so I'm open to suggestions.

Perhaps, something like "memory_add_get_nid_by_phys" may work here?
