powerpc/pseries: Use remove_memory() to remove memory
The memory remove code for powerpc/pseries should call remove_memory() so that we are holding the hotplug_memory lock during memory remove operations. This patch updates the memory node remove handler to call remove_memory() and adds a ppc_md.remove_memory() entry to handle pseries specific work that is called from arch_remove_memory(). During memory remove in pseries_remove_memblock() we have to stay with removing memory one section at a time. This is needed because of how memory resources are handled. During memory add for pseries (via the probe file in sysfs) we add memory one section at a time which gives us a memory resource for each section. Future patches will aim to address this so will not have to remove memory one section at a time.
