Please note that I posted patches that remove all error handling
from arch_remove_memory and __remove_pages(). They are already in next/master

So this gets a lot simpler and more predictable.

mm/memory_hotplug: make __remove_pages() and arch_remove_memory() never fail

All callers of arch_remove_memory() ignore errors. And we should really
try to remove any errors from the memory removal path. No more errors are
reported from __remove_pages(). BUG() in s390x code in case
arch_remove_memory() is triggered. We may implement that properly later.
WARN in case powerpc code failed to remove the section mapping, which is
better than ignoring the error completely right now.
