mm/memory_hotplug: restrict CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG to 64 bit
32 bit support is broken in various ways: for example, we can online
memory that should actually go to ZONE_HIGHMEM to ZONE_MOVABLE or in
some cases even to one of the other kernel zones.
We marked it BROKEN in commit b59d02ed0869 ("mm/memory_hotplug: disable
the functionality for 32b") almost one year ago. According to that
commit it might be broken at least since 2017. Further, there is hardly
a sane use case nowadays.
Let's just depend completely on 64bit, dropping the "BROKEN" dependency
to make clear that we are not going to support it again. Next, we'll
remove some HIGHMEM leftovers from memory hotplug code to clean up.
