In the event of memory hotplug or online/offline events, the crash memory hotplug notifier `crash_memhp_notifier()` receives a `memory_notify` object but doesn't forward that object to the generic and architecture-specific crash hotplug handler. The `memory_notify` object contains the starting PFN (Page Frame Number) and the number of pages in the hot-removed memory. This information is necessary for architectures like PowerPC to update/recreate the kdump image, specifically `elfcorehdr`. So update the function signature of `crash_handle_hotplug_event()` and `arch_crash_handle_hotplug_event()` to accept the `memory_notify` object as an argument from crash memory hotplug notifier. Since no such object is available in the case of CPU hotplug event, the crash CPU hotplug notifier `crash_cpuhp_online()` passes NULL to the crash hotplug handler.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
