Hi Naoya,

__next_free_mem_range_rev() is for for_each_free_mem_range_reverse(),
which is
only called in memblock_find_in_range_node().

But I think __next_free_mem_range() is for for_each_free_mem_range,
which is
called by many others. These callers could has nothing to do with memory
hotplug.
So I didn't add.

Maybe adding the check here is not good. I'm trying to find somewhere to
check MEMBLOCK_HOTPLUG.

Thanks. :)
