mm, memory_hotplug: drop CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE 

Commit 20b2f52b ("numa: add CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE for
movable-dedicated node") has introduced CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE without a
good explanation on why it is actually useful.

It makes a lot of sense to make movable node semantic opt in but we
already have that because the feature has to be explicitly enabled on
the kernel command line.  A config option on top only makes the
configuration space larger without a good reason.  It also adds an
additional ifdefery that pollutes the code.

Just drop the config option and make it de-facto always enabled.  This
shouldn't introduce any change to the semantic.

	  Allow a node to have only movable memory.  Pages used by the kernel,

	  such as direct mapping pages cannot be migrated.  So the corresponding

	  memory device cannot be hotplugged.  This option allows the following

	  two things:

	  - When the system is booting, node full of hotpluggable memory can

	  be arranged to have only movable memory so that the whole node can

	  be hot-removed. (need movable_node boot option specified).

	  - After the system is up, the option allows users to online all the

	  memory of a node as movable memory so that the whole node can be

	  hot-removed.



	  Users who don't use the memory hotplug feature are fine with this

	  option on since they don't specify movable_node boot option or they

	  don't online memory as movable.



	  Say Y here if you want to hotplug a whole node.

	  Say N here if you want kernel to use memory on all nodes evenly.

# Only be set on architectures that have completely implemented memory hotplug

# feature. If you are not sure, don't touch it.
