We want to stop abusing memory hotplug infrastructure in memtrace code to perform allocations and remove the linear mapping. Instead we will use alloc_contig_pages() and remove the linear mapping manually. Let's factor out creating/removing the linear mapping into arch_create_linear_mapping() / arch_remove_linear_mapping() - so in the future, we might be able to have whole arch_add_memory() / arch_remove_memory() be implemented in common code.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
