[PATCH] Allow an arch to expand node boundaries

Browse source 
Arch-independent zone-sizing determines the size of a node
(pgdat->node_spanned_pages) based on the physical memory that was
registered by the architecture.  However, when
CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_RESERVE is set, the architecture expects that the
spanned_pages will be much larger and that mem_map will be allocated that
is used lated on memory hot-add.

This patch allows an architecture that sets CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_RESERVE
to call push_node_boundaries() which will set the node beginning and end to
at *least* the requested boundary.
