This patch solve two problems.

Whenever memory hotplug sucessfully happens, zone->present_pages
have to be changed.

1) Now, memory hotplug calls setup_per_zone_wmark_min only when
online_pages called, not offline_pages.

It breaks balance.

2) If zone->present_pages is changed, we also have to change
zone->inactive_ratio. That's because inactive_ratio depends
on zone->present_pages.
