Oscar Salvador 86b27beae5 mm/memory_hotplug.c: clean up node_states_check_changes_offline()
This patch, as the previous one, gets rid of the wrong if statements.
While at it, I realized that the comments are sometimes very confusing,
to say the least, and wrong.
For example:

___
zone_last = ZONE_MOVABLE;

/*
 * check whether node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY] will be changed
 * If we try to offline the last present @nr_pages from the node,
 * we can determind we will need to clear the node from
 * node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY].
 */

for (; zt <= zone_last; zt++)
        present_pages += pgdat->node_zones[zt].present_pages;
if (nr_pages >= present_pages)
        arg->status_change_nid = zone_to_nid(zone);
else
        arg->status_change_nid = -1;
___

In case the node gets empry, it must be removed from N_MEMORY.  We already
check N_HIGH_MEMORY a bit above within the CONFIG_HIGHMEM ifdef code.  Not
to say that status_change_nid is for N_MEMORY, and not for N_HIGH_MEMORY.

So I re-wrote some of the comments to what I think is better.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
