add_memory() hot adds a physical memory. But remove_memory does not
hot remove a phsical memory. It only offlines memory. The name
confuse us.

So the patch renames remove_memory() to offline_memory(). We will
use rename_memory() for hot removing memory.

Probably, the better way is to just remove remove_memory() and use
offline_pages().

btw, current remove_memory() pfn calculation is just buggy.

It should be:

	start_pfn = PFN_DOWN(start);
	end_pfn = PFN_UP(start + size)

or

	start_pfn = PFN_UP(start);
	end_pfn = PFN_DOWN(start + size)

we don't notify the userspace that the memory is offlined in offline_pages().
We reimplement offline_memory(), but ishimatsu doesn't include that patch to
this series.
