Just a note that this was actually also a bugfix as noted by Chris.

If the memory we are removing was never onlined,
get_nid_for_pfn()->pfn_to_nid() will return garbage. Removing will
succeed but links will remain in place.

Can be triggered by

1. hotplugging a DIMM to node 1
2. not onlining the memory blocks
3. unplugging it
4. re-plugging it to node 1

We will trigger the BUG_ON(ret) in add_memory_resource(), because
link_mem_sections() will return with -EEXIST.
