Subject: mm: khugepaged: recalculate min_free_kbytes after memory hotplug as expected by khugepaged

When memory is hotplug added or removed the min_free_kbytes must be
recalculated based on what is expected by khugepaged.  Currently after
hotplug, min_free_kbytes will be set to a lower default and higher default
set when THP enabled is lost.  This leaves the system with small
min_free_kbytes which isn't suitable for systems especially with network
intensive loads.  Typical failure symptoms include HW WATCHDOG reset, soft
lockup hang notices, NETDEVICE WATCHDOG timeouts, and OOM process kills.
