Subject: mm/memory_hotplug: export mhp_get_default_online_type
Date: Sun, 12 Jul 2026 11:44:58 -0400
Drivers which may pass hotplug policy down to DAX need MMOP_ symbols and
the mhp_get_default_online_type function for hotplug use cases.
Some drivers (cxl) co-mingle their hotplug and devdax use-cases into the
same driver code, and chose the dax_kmem path as the default driver path -
making it difficult to require hotplug as a predicate to building the
overall driver (it may break other non-hotplug use-cases).
Export mhp_get_default_online_type function to allow these drivers to
build when hotplug is disabled and still use the DAX use case.
In the built-out case we simply return MMOP_OFFLINE as it's
non-destructive. The internal function can never return -1 either, so we
choose this to allow for defining the function with 'enum mmop'.
