Re: [PATCH v5 04/14] memory-hotplug: remove /sys/firmware/memmap/X sysfs

From: Yasuaki Ishimatsu <redacted>

When (hot)adding memory into system, /sys/firmware/memmap/X/{end, start, type}
sysfs files are created. But there is no code to remove these files. The patch
implements the function to remove them.

Note: The code does not free firmware_map_entry which is allocated by bootmem.
       So the patch makes memory leak. But I think the memory leak size is
       very samll. And it does not affect the system.
