2. store_mem_state() still needs a tweak, right? It was only 
returning -EINVAL by accident, due to the convoluted sequence I 
listed in the patch.
Yes, absolutely.  It returning -EINVAL for "nline" is what is accidently
preserving it's backwards compatibility :)  Note that device_online()
returns 1 if already online and memory_subsys_online() returns 0 if online
in this case.  So we want store_mem_state() to return -EINVAL if
device_online() returns non-zero (this was in my first email).
I'll spin a v3 patch to do this.

Thank you for your review!
