Currently, when memory is hot-plugged or hot-removed the accounting is
done based on the assumption that memmap is allocated from the same node
as the hot-plugged/hot-removed memory, which is not always the case.

In addition, there are challenges with keeping the node id of the memory
that is being remove to the time when memmap accounting is actually
performed: since this is done after remove_pfn_range_from_zone(), and
also after remove_memory_block_devices(). Meaning that we cannot use
pgdat nor walking though memblocks to get the nid.

Given all of that, account the memmap overhead system wide instead.

For this we are going to be using global atomic counters, but given that
memmap size is rarely modified, and normally is only modified either
during early boot when there is only one CPU, or under a hotplug global
mutex lock, therefore there is no need for per-cpu optimizations.

While we're at it (sorry, I should have found more time revieweing this 
earlier!) ...

What is the unit here? Should this be "nr_memmap_pages" / 
"nr_memmap_boot_pages"? Like

$ cat /proc/vmstat  | grep pages
nr_free_pages 3618323
nr_zspages 3
nr_anon_pages 1053316
nr_file_pages 3199210
nr_shmem_hugepages 546
nr_file_hugepages 0
nr_anon_transparent_hugepages 0
nr_page_table_pages 15215
nr_sec_page_table_pages 0
numa_pages_migrated 0


Nothing else jumped at me.

How about directly include the failing cases and user visible impacts as
reported in the Tags appended below.

Good idea, I will add _pages

Do you mean adding panic backtraces or repro steps to the commit log?

Yes. Perhaps abbreviated but something that makes the connection,
like this:

ndctl users reported a GPF when trying to destroy a namespace:
