When the global kernel command line parameter
memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory is set to false, per-memory-block
memmap_on_memory setting can still be set to true. However, when
configuring memory block, add_memory_resource() would configure it
without memmap_on_memory.
i.e.
Even if the MHP_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY flag is set,
mhp_supports_memmap_on_memory() returns false unless the kernel command
line parameter "memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory" is enabled. When both
the flag and the cmdline parameter are set, the memory block can be
configured with or without memmap_on_memory support.
To ensure consistent behavior, permit configuring per-memory-block
memmap_on_memory only when the memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory kernel
command line parameter is enabled.
This is similar to commit
73954d379efd ("dax: add a sysfs knob to
control memmap_on_memory behavior")
