Add add_memory interface to support to memory hotplug emulation for each online
node under debugfs. The reserved memory can be added into desired node with
this interface.
The layout on debugfs:
mem_hotplug/node0/add_memory
mem_hotplug/node1/add_memory
mem_hotplug/node2/add_memory
...
Add a memory section(128M) to node 3(boots with mem=1024m)
echo 0x40000000 > mem_hotplug/node3/add_memory
And more we make it friendly, it is possible to add memory to do
echo 1024m > mem_hotplug/node3/add_memory
