memory-hotplug: more general validation of zone during online
When memory is onlined, we are only able to rezone from ZONE_MOVABLE to ZONE_KERNEL, or from (ZONE_MOVABLE - 1) to ZONE_MOVABLE. To be more flexible, use the following criteria instead; to online memory from zone X into zone Y, * Any zones between X and Y must be unused. * If X is lower than Y, the onlined memory must lie at the end of X. * If X is higher than Y, the onlined memory must lie at the start of X. Add zone_can_shift() to make this determination.
