This is a preparation for the next patch. Currently, we only call release_mem_region_adjustable() in __remove_pages if the zone is not ZONE_DEVICE, because resources that belong to HMM/devm are being released by themselves with devm_release_mem_region. Since we do not want to touch any zone/page stuff during the removing of the memory (but during the offlining), we do not want to check for the zone here. So we need another way to tell release_mem_region_adjustable() to not realease the resource in case it belongs to HMM/devm. HMM/devm acquires/releases a resource through devm_request_mem_region/devm_release_mem_region. These resources have the flag IORESOURCE_MEM, while resources acquired by hot-add memory path (register_memory_resource()) contain IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM. So, we can check for this flag in release_mem_region_adjustable, and if the resource does not contain such flag, we know that we are dealing with a HMM/devm resource, so we can back off.

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.
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.
