Encapsulate the mhp_init_memmap_on_memory() and online_pages() into
online_memory_block_pages(). Thus we can further optimize the
set_zone_contiguous() to check the whole memory block range, instead
of check the zone contiguous in separate range.
Correspondingly, encapsulate the mhp_deinit_memmap_on_memory() and
offline_pages() into offline_memory_block_pages().

I think we can move most of memory_block_online() to the new function and
pass struct memory_block to it.
I'd suggest
int mhp_block_online(struct memory_block *block)
and
int mhp_block_offline(struct memory_block *block)
Other than that LGTM.

It's doable, if not other comments I can change the code. Would it look
like moving the functions to mm/memory_hotplug.c, change the name to
mhp_block_online() and mhp_block_offline(), and change the references
where the original function invoked in drivers/base/memory.c?
My prior thoughts on this was just break the code as small pieces as
necessary to handle the pages online part together with zone contiguous
state update.

Yeah, that's what I thought about.
Even more broadly, I think the functionality in drivers/base/memory.c
belongs to mm/ much more than to drivers/ but that's surely out of scope
for these patches.

IMHO moving the entire function is cleaner, let's hear what David and Oscar
think.

Thanks Mike for the confirmation.

Sure. Actually the patch has been ready with the mhp_block_online() and
mhp_block_offline() moved to memory_hotplug.c, the
online_memory_block_pages() and offline_memory_block_pages() remains but
as static function.
Once get feedback from David and Oscar, I can change them accordingly.
