[PATCH] memory hotadd fixes [4/5] avoid check in acpi

From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
Date: Wed Aug 02 2006 - 23:31:50 EST



add_memory() does all necessary check to avoid collision.
then, acpi layer doesn't have to check region by itself.

(*) pfn_valid() just returns page struct is valid or not. It returns 0
if a section has been already added even is ioresource is not added.
ioresource collision check in mm/memory_hotplug.c can do more precise
collistion check.
added enabled bit check just for sanity check..
