/*
* Each virtio - mem device manages a dedicated region in physical address
* space . Each device can belong to a single NUMA node , multiple devices
* for a single NUMA node are possible . A virtio - mem device is like a
* " resizable DIMM " consisting of small memory blocks that can be plugged
* or unplugged . The device driver is responsible for ( un ) plugging memory
* blocks on demand .
*
* Virtio - mem devices can only operate on their assigned memory region in
* order to ( un ) plug memory . A device cannot ( un ) plug memory belonging to
* other devices .
*
* The " region_size " corresponds to the maximum amount of memory that can
* be provided by a device . The " size " corresponds to the amount of memory
* that is currently plugged . " requested_size " corresponds to a request
* from the device to the device driver to ( un ) plug blocks . The
* device driver should try to ( un ) plug blocks in order to reach the
* " requested_size " . It is impossible to plug more memory than requested .
*
* The " usable_region_size " represents the memory region that can actually
* be used to ( un ) plug memory . It is always at least as big as the
* " requested_size " and will grow dynamically . It will only shrink when
* explicitly triggered ( VIRTIO_MEM_REQ_UNPLUG ) .
*
* There are no guarantees what will happen if unplugged memory is
* read / written . In general , unplugged memory should not be touched , because
* the resulting action is undefined . There is one exception : without
* VIRTIO_MEM_F_UNPLUGGED_INACCESSIBLE , unplugged memory inside the usable
* region can be read , to simplify creation of memory dumps .
*
* It can happen that the device cannot process a request , because it is
* busy . The device driver has to retry later .
*
* Usually , during system resets all memory will get unplugged , so the
* device driver can start with a clean state . However , in specific
* scenarios ( if the device is busy ) it can happen that the device still
* has memory plugged . The device driver can request to unplug all memory
* ( VIRTIO_MEM_REQ_UNPLUG ) - which might take a while to succeed if the
* device is busy .
