[RFC PATCH] mm/page_alloc: fix counting of free pages after take off from buddy

[Ding Hui <dinghui@sangfor.com.cn>]

Recently we found there is a lot MemFree left in /proc/meminfo after
do a lot of pages soft offline.

I think it's incorrect since NR_FREE_PAGES should not contain HWPoison pages.
After take_page_off_buddy, the page is no longer belong to buddy
allocator, and will not be used any more, but we maybe missed accounting
NR_FREE_PAGES in this situation.
