Subject: mm/memory-hotplug: fix lowmem count overflow when offline pages

Logic memory-remove code fails to correctly account the Total High Memory
when a memory block which contains High Memory is offlined as shown in the
example below.  The following patch fixes it.

Before logic memory remove:

MemTotal:        7603740 kB
MemFree:         6329612 kB
Buffers:           94352 kB

SwapCached:            0 kB
Active:           626932 kB
Inactive:         519216 kB
Active(anon):     180776 kB
Inactive(anon):   222944 kB
Active(file):     446156 kB
Inactive(file):   296272 kB
Unevictable:           0 kB
Mlocked:               0 kB
HighTotal:       7294672 kB
HighFree:        5704696 kB
LowTotal:         309068 kB
LowFree:          624916 kB

After logic memory remove:

MemTotal:        7079452 kB
MemFree:         5805976 kB
Buffers:           94372 kB
