This patch introduces MHP_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY flag,
and prepares the callers that add memory to take a "flags" parameter.
This "flags" parameter will be evaluated later on in Patch#3
to init mhp_restrictions struct.

The callers are:

add_memory
__add_memory
add_memory_resource

Unfortunately, we do not have a single entry point to add memory, as depending
on the requisites of the caller, they want to hook up in different places,
(e.g: Xen reserve_additional_memory()), so we have to spread the parameter
in the three callers.

MHP_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY flag parameter will specify to allocate memmaps
from the hot-added range.
If callers wants memmaps to be allocated per memory block, it will
have to call add_memory() variants in memory-block granularity
spanning the whole range, while if it wants to allocate memmaps
per whole memory range, just one call will do.

Want to add 384MB (3 sections, 3 memory-blocks)
e.g:

add_memory(0x1000, size_memory_block);
add_memory(0x2000, size_memory_block);
add_memory(0x3000, size_memory_block);

[memblock#0 ]
[0 - 511 pfns ] - vmemmaps for section#0
[512 - 32767 pfns ] - normal memory

[memblock#1 ]
[32768 - 33279 pfns] - vmemmaps for section#1
[33280 - 65535 pfns] - normal memory

[memblock#2 ]
[65536 - 66047 pfns] - vmemmap for section#2
[66048 - 98304 pfns] - normal memory

or
add_memory(0x1000, size_memory_block * 3);

[memblock #0 ]
[0 - 1533 pfns ] - vmemmap for section#{0-2}
[1534 - 98304 pfns] - normal memory

When using larger memory blocks (1GB or 2GB), the principle is the same.

Of course, per whole-range granularity is nicer when it comes to have a large
contigous area, while per memory-block granularity allows us to have flexibility
when removing the memory.
