+	memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory
+			[KNL,X86,ARM] Boolean flag to enable this feature.
+			Format: {on | off (default)}
+			When enabled, runtime hotplugged memory will
+			allocate its internal metadata (struct pages)
+			from the hotadded memory which will allow to
+			hotadd a lot of memory without requiring
+			additional memory to do so.
+			This feature is disabled by default because it
+			has some implication on large (e.g. GB)
+			allocations in some configurations (e.g. small
+			memory blocks).
+			The state of the flag can be read in
+			/sys/module/memory_hotplug/parameters/memmap_on_memory.
+			Note that even when enabled, there are a few cases where
+			the feature is not effective.
