mm: make __free_pages_bootmem() only available at boot time
In order to simpilify management of totalram_pages and zone->managed_pages, make __free_pages_bootmem() only available at boot time. With this change applied, __free_pages_bootmem() will only be used by bootmem.c and nobootmem.c at boot time, so mark it as __init. Other callers of __free_pages_bootmem() have been converted to use free_reserved_page(), which handles totalram_pages and zone->managed_pages in a safer way. This patch also fix a bug in free_pagetable() for x86_64, which should increase zone->managed_pages instead of zone->present_pages when freeing reserved pages. And now we have managed_pages_count_lock to protect totalram_pages and zone->managed_pages, so remove the redundant ppb_lock lock in put_page_bootmem(). This greatly simplifies the locking rules.
