hotplug.c must not have such pure huge page function.

We can kill scan_lru_pages() completely. That's mere minor optimization and memory
hotremove it definitely not hot path.

After applying your patch, __offline_pages() free hugetlb persistent and surplus pages.
Thus this should allocate same size huge pages on other nodes.
Otherwise, total hugepages implicitely decrease and application may crash after offline page
success.

Your patch description says, we can't move 1GB hugepage. and then this seems
too blutal.

numa_node_id() is really silly. This might lead to allocate from offlining node.

and, offline_pages() should mark hstate as isolated likes normal pages for prohibiting
new allocation at first.
