Let's trigger from offlining code only when we're not allowed to unplug online memory. Handle the other case (memmap possibly freeing up another memory block) when actually removing memory. We now also properly handle the case when removing already offline memory blocks via virtio_mem_mb_remove(). When removing via virtio_mem_remove(), when unloading the driver, virtio_mem_retry() is a NOP and safe to use. While at it, move retry handling when offlining out of virtio_mem_notify_offline(), to share it with Big Block Mode (BBM) soon. This is a preparation for Big Block Mode (BBM), whereby we can see some temporary offlining of memory blocks without actually making progress. Imagine you have a Big Block that spans to Linux memory blocks. Assume the first Linux memory blocks has no unmovable data on it. When we would call offline_and_remove_memory() on the big block, we would 1. Try to offline the first block. Works, notifiers triggered. virtio_mem_retry() called. 2. Try to offline the second block. Does not work. 3. Re-online first block. 4. Exit to main loop, exit workqueue. 5. Retry immediately (due to virtio_mem_retry()), go to 1. The result are endless retries. Cc: "Michael S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
