+ memory device cannot be hotplugged. This option allows the following
+ two things:
+ - When the system is booting, node full of hotpluggable memory can
+ be arranged to have only movable memory so that the whole node can
+ be hot-removed. (need movable_node boot option specified).
+ - After the system is up, the option allows users to online all the
+ memory of a node as movable memory so that the whole node can be
+ hot-removed.
+
+ Users who don't use the memory hotplug feature are fine with this
+ option on since they don't specify movable_node boot option or they
+ don't online memory as movable.
Say Y here if you want to hotplug a whole node.
Say N here if you want kernel to use memory on all nodes evenly.
