Title:
  [19.04 FEAT] zone awareness for lsmem / chmem - util-linux

Status in Ubuntu on IBM z Systems:
  Fix Released
Status in util-linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Description:
  Kernel version 4.12 will change the default zone for hotplug memory to the zone-normal. To add memory to the zone movable "online_movable" needs to be echoed into the state attribute of a memory segment. 
  Currently chmem always echos "online" to enable a memory segment.
  This feature adds an option to lsmem and chmem to distinguish between zone-movable and zone-normal.

  Business Case: 
  Ensure memory hotplug with enhanced upstream functionality

  Available with util-linux 2.32.

  Due to integration of 2.33 already in 19.04, this feature is only for
  completness
