[PATCH] mm/page_alloc: don't re-init pageset in zone_pcp_update()

[Cody P Schafer <cody@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

Factor pageset_set_high_and_batch() (which contains all needed logic too
set a pageset's ->high and ->batch inrespective of system state) out of
zone_pageset_init(), which avoids us calling pageset_init(), and
unsafely blowing away a pageset at runtime (leaked pages and
potentially some funky allocations would be the result) when memory
hotplug is triggered.

Unless memory hotplug is being triggered on boot, this should *not* be cause of Valdis
Kletnieks' reported bug in -next:
         "next-20130607 BUG: Bad page state in process systemd pfn:127643"
