There is a series [1] which adds some new hotplug functions starting with mhp_ (after deciding in its favor rather than memhp_). We should have a common naming scheme either memhp_ based or mhp_ based but not mixed. As it was proposed [2] to go with mhp_ based names instead, all the existing memhp_ needed renaming. Hence the this patch.
