Okay, I can make a change in memory_hotplug.h, sth like:
--- a/include/linux/memory_hotplug.h
+++ b/include/linux/memory_hotplug.h
@@ -149,13 +149,13 @@ int add_pages(int nid, unsigned long start_pfn, unsigned long nr_pages,
struct mhp_params *params);
#endif /* ARCH_HAS_ADD_PAGES */

-#ifdef CONFIG_NUMA
-extern int memory_add_physaddr_to_nid(u64 start);
-#else
+#if !defined(CONFIG_NUMA) || !defined(memory_add_physaddr_to_nid)
static inline int memory_add_physaddr_to_nid(u64 start)
{
return 0;
}
+#else
+extern int memory_add_physaddr_to_nid(u64 start);
#endif

And then check the memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() helper on all arches,
if it is noop(return 0), I can simply remove it.
if it is not noop, after the helper,
#define memory_add_physaddr_to_nid

What do you think of this proposal?
