[RESEND PATCH] mm: clear N_HIGH_MEMORY map before se set it again-v2

in case some system strange SRAT table. some kind of small range.
or with mem= boot option etc

if the wrong SRAT table, have small range for some node. that node will not be
onlined. In the early checking, the bit in node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY] for the
node is set even that node has less RAM like 1M, and it is not cleared before
the bit is set again in the following loop according online nodes finally.

for 64bit N_HIGH_MEMORY == N_NORMAL_MEMORY, so that works for 64 bit too

v2: fix typo
