+ * Determine to which zone to online memory dynamically based on user
+ * configuration and system stats. We care about the following ratio:
+ *
+ *   MOVABLE : KERNEL
+ *
+ * Whereby MOVABLE is memory in ZONE_MOVABLE and KERNEL is memory in
+ * one of the kernel zones. CMA pages inside one of the kernel zones really
+ * behaves like ZONE_MOVABLE, so we treat them accordingly.
+ *
+ * We don't allow for hotplugged memory in a KERNEL zone to increase the
+ * amount of MOVABLE memory we can have, so we end up with:
+ *
+ *   MOVABLE : KERNEL_EARLY
+ *
+ * Whereby KERNEL_EARLY is memory in one of the kernel zones, available sinze
+ * boot. We base our calculation on KERNEL_EARLY internally, because:
+ *
+ * a) Hotplugged memory in one of the kernel zones can sometimes still get
+ *    hotunplugged, especially when hot(un)plugging individual memory blocks.
+ *    There is no coordination across memory devices, therefore "automatic"
+ *    hotunplugging, as implemented in hypervisors, could result in zone
+ *    imbalances.
+ * b) Early/boot memory in one of the kernel zones can usually not get
+ *    hotunplugged again (e.g., no firmware interface to unplug, fragmented
+ *    with unmovable allocations). While there are corner cases where it might
+ *    still work, it is barely relevant in practice.
+ *
+ * We rely on "present pages" instead of "managed pages", as the latter is
+ * highly unreliable and dynamic in virtualized environments, and does not
+ * consider boot time allocations. For example, memory ballooning adjusts the
+ * managed pages when inflating/deflating the balloon, and balloon compaction
+ * can even migrate inflated pages between zones.
+ *
+ * Using "present pages" is better but some things to keep in mind are:
+ *
+ * a) Some memblock allocations, such as for the crashkernel area, are
+ *    effectively unused by the kernel, yet they account to "present pages".
+ *    Fortunately, these allocations are comparatively small in relevant setups
+ *    (e.g., fraction of system memory).
+ * b) Some hotplugged memory blocks in virtualized environments, esecially
+ *    hotplugged by virtio-mem, look like they are completely present, however,
+ *    only parts of the memory block are actually currently usable.
+ *    "present pages" is an upper limit that can get reached at runtime. As
+ *    we base our calculations on KERNEL_EARLY, this is not an issue.
