    mm/memblock.c: do not complain about top-down allocations for !MEMORY_HOTREMOVE · e3d301ca
    Michal Hocko authored
    Mike Rapoport is converting architectures from bootmem to nobootmem
    allocator.  While doing so for m68k Geert has noticed that he gets a
    scary looking warning:
    
      WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at mm/memblock.c:230
      memblock_find_in_range_node+0x11c/0x1be

    The warning is basically saying that a top-down allocation can break
    memory hotremove because memblock allocation is not movable.  But m68k
    doesn't even support MEMORY_HOTREMOVE so there is no point to warn about
    it.
    
    Make the warning conditional only to configurations that care.
