It links OK now with normal configurations, because nobody references
add/remove_memory() unless MEMORY_HOTPLUG is enabled. The user in the
bug report
http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6538
managed to enable sparsemem and memory hotplug. The generic hotplug
code referenced those symbols, and they got a link error.
