memory-hotplug: more general validation of zone during online
When memory is onlined, we are only able to rezone from ZONE_MOVABLE to
ZONE_KERNEL, or from (ZONE_MOVABLE - 1) to ZONE_MOVABLE.
To be more flexible, use the following criteria instead; to online
memory from zone X into zone Y,
* Any zones between X and Y must be unused.
* If X is lower than Y, the onlined memory must lie at the end of X.
* If X is higher than Y, the onlined memory must lie at the start of X.
Add zone_can_shift() to make this determination.
