Subject: [PATCH R2 1/7] mm: Add add_registered_memory() to memory hotplug API

add_registered_memory() adds memory ealier registered
as memory resource. It is required by memory hotplug
for Xen guests, however it could be used also by other
modules.

Looks like this patch was based on a kernel before 2.6.37-rc4 since it
doesn't have 20d6c96b5f (mem-hotplug: introduce {un}lock_memory_hotplug())

Lots of unnecessary empty lines here, and scripts/checkpatch.pl says there
are trailing whitespaces as well.

As I wrote in "[PATCH R2 0/7] Xen memory balloon driver with memoryhotplug
support" this patch applies to Linux kernel Ver. 2.6.36.

Strange. I tested it with this script and I received:

0001-mm-Add-add_registered_memory-to-memory-hotplug-API.txt has no
obvious style problems and is ready for submission.

I do not know why my e-mail was mangled. For your convenience
I am sending this patch as attachment.

Empty lines are added for better readability (it is my
opinion) however, I do not insist to leave this patch
with that formating.

Daniel

I'd suggest posting patches against the latest -git.

Thx, next patch will be based on latest rc.
