This reverts commit cea27eb2a202959783f81254c48c250ddd80e129.

Fixed to adjust totalhigh_pages when hot-removing memory by commit
3dcc0571cd64816309765b7c7e4691a4cadf2ee7, so that commit occurs
duplicated decreasing of totalhigh_pages.

The commit cea27eb2a202959783f81254c48c250ddd80e129 is only for stable,
is it right?

Could you please also include commit descriptions, i.e.
commit cea27eb2a202959783f81254c48c250ddd80e129 ("mm/memory-hotplug: fix
lowmem count overflow when offline pages")?

Could you please describe it a bit more (because it is non-obvious) how
the commit cea27eb effectively does the same totalhigh_pages adjustment
that is present in the commit 3dcc057?

It is in Linus' tree now but you're probably right that it should be
limited to stable tree.

Err, the other way around. How the commit 3dcc057 ("mm: correctly update
zone->managed_pages") does what cea27eb ("mm/memory-hotplug: fix lowmem
count overflow when offline pages") did.
