In preparation for further changes, let's teach __free_pages_core()
about the differences of memory hotplug handling.

Move the memory hotplug specific handling from generic_online_page() to
__free_pages_core(), use adjust_managed_page_count() on the memory
hotplug path, and spell out why memory freed via memblock
cannot currently use adjust_managed_page_count().
