[PATCH v2 1/4] acpi, numa, mem_hotplug: Kill save_add_info().

[Tang Chen <tangchen@cn.fujitsu.com>]

save_add_info() is defined as:

	#ifdef CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG
	static inline int save_add_info(void) {return 1;}
	#else
	static inline int save_add_info(void) {return 0;}
	#endif

which means it is true when memory hotplug is configured.

In acpi_numa_memory_affinity_init(), it checks the memory hotplug
flag in SRAT memory affinity and save_add_info() like this:

	if ((ma->flags & ACPI_SRAT_MEM_HOT_PLUGGABLE) && !save_add_info())
		goto out_err;
	......
	node = setup_node(pxm);
	numa_add_memblk(node, start, end);
	......

which means if the memory range is hotpluggable, but memory hotplug is not
configured, it won't add these memory to numa_meminfo.

After this, numa_meminfo_cover_memory() will fail, which will finally cause
numa_init() to fail.

numa_init()
 |->numa_register_memblks()
     |->numa_meminfo_cover_memory()

When numa_init() fails, it will fallback to numa_init(dummy_numa_init), and
all numa architecture will not be setup.

This is nonsense. Even if memory hotplug is not configured, we can also use
numa architecture.

Actually, save_add_info() is added by commit 71efa8fdc55e70ec6687c897a30759f0a2c2ad7e
in 2006. And now it is useless.

So this patch kill save_add_info() and the nonsense checking.
