Ping?  This enables a useful feature for Xen guests.

Looks OK to me.  I've cc'ed some memory_hotplug.c developers.  If
they're OK with it, please add the patch to the (Xen?) tree which uses
it.




Add add_memory_resource() to add memory using an existing "System RAM"
resource.  This is useful if the memory region is being located by
finding a free resource slot with allocate_resource().

Xen guests will make use of this in their balloon driver to hotplug
arbitrary amounts of memory in response to toolstack requests.

Not a big deal, but I think  "if (ret)"  is enough.

The code looks good.
