[PATCH 10/12] mm: clear node in N_HIGH_MEMORY and stop kswapd when all memory is offlined

mm: clear node in N_HIGH_MEMORY and stop kswapd when all memory is offlined

When memory is hot-removed, its node must be cleared in N_HIGH_MEMORY if
there are no present pages left.

In such a situation, kswapd must also be stopped since it has nothing
left to do.
