The PCP high watermark is based on the number of online CPUs so the
watermarks must be adjusted during CPU hotplug. At the time of
hot-remove, the number of online CPUs is already adjusted but during
hot-add, a delta needs to be applied to update PCP to the correct
value. After this patch is applied, the high watermarks are adjusted
correctly.

  # grep high: /proc/zoneinfo  | tail -1
              high:  649

              high:  664
  # echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu4/online
  # grep high: /proc/zoneinfo  | tail -1
              high:  649
