mm/memmap_init: update variable name in memmap_init_zone

Patch series "mm/memory_hotplug: Shrink zones before removing memory", v6.

This series fixes the access of uninitialized memmaps when shrinking
zones/nodes and when removing memory.  Also, it contains all fixes for
crashes that can be triggered when removing certain namespace using
memunmap_pages() - ZONE_DEVICE, reported by Aneesh.

We stop trying to shrink ZONE_DEVICE, as it's buggy, fixing it would be
more involved (we don't have SECTION_IS_ONLINE as an indicator), and
shrinking is only of limited use (set_zone_contiguous() cannot detect the
ZONE_DEVICE as contiguous).

We continue shrinking !ZONE_DEVICE zones, however, I reduced the amount of
code to a minimum.  Shrinking is especially necessary to keep
zone->contiguous set where possible, especially, on memory unplug of DIMMs
at zone boundaries.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Zones are now properly shrunk when offlining memory blocks or when
onlining failed.  This allows to properly shrink zones on memory unplug
even if the separate memory blocks of a DIMM were onlined to different
zones or re-onlined to a different zone after offlining.

Example:

:/# cat /proc/zoneinfo
Node 1, zone  Movable
        spanned  0
        present  0
        managed  0
:/# echo "online_movable" > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory41/state
:/# echo "online_movable" > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory43/state
:/# cat /proc/zoneinfo
Node 1, zone  Movable
        spanned  98304
        present  65536
        managed  65536
:/# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory43/online
:/# cat /proc/zoneinfo
Node 1, zone  Movable
        spanned  32768
        present  32768
        managed  32768
:/# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory41/online
:/# cat /proc/zoneinfo
Node 1, zone  Movable
        spanned  0
        present  0
        managed  0

This patch (of 6):

The third argument is actually number of pages.  Change the variable name
from size to nr_pages to indicate this better.

No functional change in this patch.
