[GIT PULL] x86/mm for 7.2-rc1

Hi Linus,
Please pull some x86/mm changes for 7.2-rc1. There's a small comment
fixup, followed by an actual bug fix. The bug fix is slightly new
territory for us. It fixes a real regression, but it is from ~6.18
not a _new_ regression. It was mostly only biting folks doing hotplug
memory testing. So, it was queued in here and held for the merge
window instead of going via x86/urgent.
We _think_ holding on to things like this is what you asked for in
the 7.1-rc5 announcement. Please holler if this isn't what you were
hoping for.
