mm/memory_hotplug: add __add_memory_driver_managed() with online_type arg
Existing callers of add_memory_driver_managed cannot select the preferred online type (ZONE_NORMAL vs ZONE_MOVABLE), requiring it to hot-add memory as offline blocks, and then follow up by onlining each memory block individually. Most drivers prefer the system default, but the CXL driver wants to plumb a preferred policy through the dax kmem driver. Refactor APIs to add a new interface which allows the dax kmem module to select a preferred policy. Overriding the configured auto-online policy is only safe for known in-tree modules, where we know the override reflects a different, user-requested policy. We do not want arbitrary out-of-tree drivers silently overriding the system-wide onlining policy, so restrict the new interface to the kmem module using EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_MODULES() rather than a plain EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(). Other in-tree modules (e.g. cxl_core) can be added to the allowed list as the need arises. Refactor add_memory_driver_managed, extract __add_memory_driver_managed - Add proper kernel-doc for add_memory_driver_managed while refactoring - New helper accepts an explicit online_type. - New helper validates online_type is between OFFLINE and ONLINE_MOVABLE Refactor: add_memory_resource, extract __add_memory_resource - new helper accepts an explicit online_type Original APIs now explicitly pass the system-default to new helpers. No functional change for existing users.
