[PATCH 11/12] hugetlb: handle memory hot-plug events

[Lee Schermerhorn <lee.schermerhorn@hp.com>]

[PATCH 11/12] hugetlb:  per node attributes -- handle memory hot plug

Register per node hstate attributes only for nodes with memory.
As suggested by David Rientjes.

With Memory Hotplug, memory can be added to a memoryless node and
a node with memory can become memoryless.  Therefore, add a memory
on/off-line notifier callback to [un]register a node's attributes
on transition to/from memoryless state.

N.B.,  Only tested build, boot, libhugetlbfs regression.
       i.e., no memory hotplug testing.
