That is what I am also trying to verify :). How do we verify the GetMemoryMap()
sees
the DIMMs or not? As I said, I have tested it with patch upto #06(means no
fdt_add_hotpluggable_memory_nodes) and checked /proc/meminfo which has
the dimm memory included in the total memory it reports.
But not sure how you will verify whether GetMemoryMap() see the dimm or not.
