Subject: mm: clear node in N_HIGH_MEMORY and stop kswapd when all memory is offlined
From: David Rientjes <rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx>

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.
