This also doesn't fix the problem on cell, since the time when the bug
happens, we're not calling through this function, or arch_add_memory,
at all, but rather invoke __add_pages directly. As BenH already mentioned,
we shouldn't do really call __add_pages at all.

Let me attempt another fix that might address all cases. This is completely
untested as of now, but also addresses Dave's latest comment.
