On reboot, all memory that was previously added using object_add and
device_add is placed in this DIMM area.

The new SPAPR_LMB_FLAGS_HOTPLUGGED flag helps Linux to put this memory in
the correct memory zone, so no unmovable allocations are made there,
allowing the object to be easily hot-removed by device_del and
object_del.

Signed-off-by: Leonardo Bras <leonardo@linux.ibm.com>

The new flag was already proposed on Power Architecture documentation,
and it's waiting for approval.

I would like to get your comments on this change, but it's still not
ready for being merged.
