Sorry that I didn't realize the purpose of the CONFIG_* options. But this
optoin may be needed because:
a) When memory hotplug, we need set the boot allocation bitmap memory to 512k
when booting. So for small system, we can avoid that extra memory. Of course,
maybe that can be removed after the allocation bitmap is removed al-together.
b) When Memory hotplug, we can't adjust compatible guest's hv_virt_start
anymore. I'm not sure how important it is, so I keep that for
non-memory-hotplug support.
Any idea?
I will change the X86_MAX_PFN.
