The last version of this patchset:

As we're now at -rc7 I'd prefer to take a look at all of this after the
3.7 release - please resend everything shortly after 3.8-rc1.
If you want to know the reason, please read following thread.

Please include the rationale within each version of the patchset rather
than by linking to an old email.  Because

a) this way, more people are likely to read it

b) it permits the text to be maimtained as the code evolves

c) it permits the text to be included in the mainlnie commit, where
   people can find it.
The patch-set has only the function of kernel core side for physical
memory hot remove. So if you use the patch, please apply following
patches.

- bug fix for memory hot remove
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/31/269
  
- acpi framework
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/26/175
What's happening with the acpi framework?  has it received any feedback
from the ACPI developers?
