arch, mm: streamline HIGHMEM freeing

All architectures that support HIGHMEM have their code that frees high
memory pages to the buddy allocator while __free_memory_core() is limited
to freeing only low memory.

There is no actual reason for that.  The memory map is completely ready by
the time memblock_free_all() is called and high pages can be released to
the buddy allocator along with low memory.

Remove low memory limit from __free_memory_core() and drop per-architecture
code that frees high memory pages.
