When hot-removing memory release_mem_region_adjustable() splits iomem resources if they are not the exact size of the memory being hot-deleted. Adding this memory back to the kernel adds a new resource. Eg a node has memory 0x0 - 0xfffffffff. Hot-removing 1GB from 0xf40000000 results in the single resource 0x0-0xfffffffff being split into two resources: 0x0-0xf3fffffff and 0xf80000000-0xfffffffff. When we hot-add the memory back we now have three resources: 0x0-0xf3fffffff, 0xf40000000-0xf7fffffff, and 0xf80000000-0xfffffffff. This is an issue if we try to remove some memory that overlaps resources. Eg when trying to remove 2GB at address 0xf40000000, release_mem_region_adjustable() fails as it expects the chunk of memory to be within the boundaries of a single resource. We then get the warning: "Unable to release resource" and attempting to use memtrace again gives us this error: "bash: echo: write error: Resource temporarily unavailable" This patch makes memtrace remove memory in chunks that are always the same size from an address that is always equal to end_of_memory - n*size, for some n. So hotremoving and hotadding memory of different sizes will now not attempt to remove memory that spans multiple resources.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
