How about deleting whole testcases/kernel/hotplug/memory_hotplug directory?
The only binary from that directory is memtoy, which is indeed not used in
any runtest file nor any script called by a runtest file.

It was taken from an upstream project from
http://devresources.linux-foundation.org/dev/hotplug/, which is now available
in https://github.com/kosaki/memtoy.

I can send patch with RFC tag to ML before, if you want.


Kind regards,
Petr
