Fix invalid access to pgdat during hot-remove operation:
ndctl users reported a GPF when trying to destroy a namespace:
$ ndctl destroy-namespace all -r all -f
 Segmentation fault
 dmesg:

 non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000005650: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN

Currently, when memory is hot-plugged or hot-removed the accounting is
done based on the assumption that memmap is allocated from the same node
as the hot-plugged/hot-removed memory, which is not always the case.

In addition, there are challenges with keeping the node id of the memory
that is being remove to the time when memmap accounting is actually
performed: since this is done after remove_pfn_range_from_zone(), and
also after remove_memory_block_devices(). Meaning that we cannot use
pgdat nor walking though memblocks to get the nid.

Given all of that, account the memmap overhead system wide instead.

For this we are going to be using global atomic counters, but given that
memmap size is rarely modified, and normally is only modified either
during early boot when there is only one CPU, or under a hotplug global
mutex lock, therefore there is no need for per-cpu optimizations.

Also, while we are here rename nr_memmap to nr_memmap_pages, and
nr_memmap_boot to nr_memmap_boot_pages to be self explanatory that the
units are in page count.
