[PATCH v1] mm: relax deferred struct page requirements

From: Pavel Tatashin
Date: Thu Nov 16 2017 - 20:47:31 EST


There is no need to have ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT,
as all the page initialization code is in common code.

Also, there is no need to depend on MEMORY_HOTPLUG, as initialization code
does not really use hotplug memory functionality. So, we can remove this
requirement as well.

This patch allows to use deferred struct page initialization on all
platforms with memblock allocator.

Tested on x86, arm64, and sparc. Also, verified that code compiles on
PPC with CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG disabled.
