Can we get rid of the highmem ifdef in adjust_managed_page_count()?
Likely yes: we don't have that many totalhigh_pages() users, and they
all don't seem to be very performance critical.

So let's implement totalhigh_pages() like nr_free_highpages(),
collecting information from all zones. This is now similar to what we do
in si_meminfo_node() to collect the per-node highmem page count.

In the common case (single node, 3-4 zones), we really shouldn't care.
We could optimize a bit further (only walk ZONE_HIGHMEM and ZONE_MOVABLE
if required), but there doesn't seem a real need for that.

Another (later than usual, but better late than never) build bot complaint:
