mm: reinititalise user and admin reserves if memory is added or removed



Alter the admin and user reserves of the previous patches in this series
when memory is added or removed.

If memory is added and the reserves have been eliminated or increased
above the default max, then we'll trust the admin.

If memory is removed and there isn't enough free memory, then we need to
reset the reserves.

Otherwise keep the reserve set by the admin.

The reserve reset code is the same as the reserve initialization code.

I tested hot addition and removal by triggering it via sysfs.  The
reserves shrunk when they were set high and memory was removed.  They
were reset higher when memory was added again.

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: init_user_reserve() and init_admin_reserve can no longer be __meminit]
[fengguang.wu@intel.com: make init_reserve_notifier() static]
