mm/hotplug: remove stop_machine() from try_offline_node()

lock_device_hotplug() serializes hotplug & online/offline operations.  The
lock is held in common sysfs online/offline interfaces and ACPI hotplug
code paths.

And here are the code paths:

- CPU & Mem online/offline via sysfs online
	store_online()->lock_device_hotplug()

- Mem online via sysfs state:
	store_mem_state()->lock_device_hotplug()

- ACPI CPU & Mem hot-add:
	acpi_scan_bus_device_check()->lock_device_hotplug()

- ACPI CPU & Mem hot-delete:
	acpi_scan_hot_remove()->lock_device_hotplug()

try_offline_node() off-lines a node if all memory sections and cpus are
removed on the node.  It is called from acpi_processor_remove() and
acpi_memory_remove_memory()->remove_memory() paths, both of which are in
the ACPI hotplug code.

try_offline_node() calls stop_machine() to stop all cpus while checking
all cpu status with the assumption that the caller is not protected from
CPU hotplug or CPU online/offline operations.  However, the caller is
always serialized with lock_device_hotplug().  Also, the code needs to be
properly serialized with a lock, not by stopping all cpus at a random
place with stop_machine().

This patch removes the use of stop_machine() in try_offline_node() and
adds comments to try_offline_node() and remove_memory() that
lock_device_hotplug() is required.
