arch_add_memory() is reorganized a bit in preparation for a new

Instead of the new arch_add_dev_memory call I'd just add a bool device
argument to arch_add_memory and zone_for_memory (and later the altmap
pointer aswell).

arch_add_memory is a candidate to be factored into common code,
except for s390 everything could be done with two small arch callouts.
