[PATCH 4/10] memory-hotplug : unregister memory section on SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP

From: Yasuaki Ishimatsu <hidden>
Date: 2012-10-05 02:31:45
Also in: linux-acpi, linux-mm, linux-s390, linuxppc-dev, lkml, sparclinux

Currently __remove_section for SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP does nothing. But even if
we use SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, we can unregister the memory_section.

So the patch add unregister_memory_section() into __remove_section().
