The "sub-section memory hotplug" facility allows memremap_pages() users like libnvdimm to compensate for hardware platforms like x86 that have a section size larger than their hardware memory mapping granularity. The compensation that sub-section support affords is being tolerant of physical memory resources shifting by units smaller (64MiB on x86) than the memory-hotplug section size (128 MiB). Where the platform physical-memory mapping granularity is limited by the number and capability of address-decode-registers in the memory controller. While the sub-section support allows memremap_pages() to operate on sub-section (2MiB) granularity, the Power architecture may still require 16MiB alignment on "!radix_enabled()" platforms. In order for libnvdimm to be able to detect and manage this per-arch limitation, introduce memremap_compat_align() as a common minimum alignment across all driver-facing memory-mapping interfaces, and let Power override it to 16MiB in the "!radix_enabled()" case. The assumption / requirement for 16MiB to be a viable memremap_compat_align() value is that Power does not have platforms where its equivalent of address-decode-registers never hardware remaps a persistent memory resource on smaller than 16MiB boundaries. Note that I tried my best to not add a new Kconfig symbol, but header include entanglements defeated the #ifndef memremap_compat_align design pattern and the need to export it defeats the __weak design pattern for arch overrides. Based on an initial patch by Aneesh.
