Agree. It is better to split this.

Hmm..I think this is because virt.c has a create_fdt() where "/memory " subnode
is created. May be I can keep that and update with non-plug mem and create a new
"/memory @" for pc-dimm case. I will double check.

Yes. It is not related to this patch per se. But without this and some of the
related mem_len/ mem_sz changes below it will end up creating more num
of memory nodes as the numa mem info is populated much earlier than we
modify the ram_size(non-plug) info. I can move this and your related comment
for acpi patch (5/6) to a separate patch.

Ok. I will split.

The break here means we have populated mem nodes for non-plug ram case
and the remaining mem(if any) will be based on the pc-dimm case. Yes, it
is possible that Guest kernel will report memory-less numa nodes. I will add
a msg here.

Ok.
