x86/mm/numa: Clean up numa_clear_kernel_node_hotplug()
So we fixed an overflow bug in numa_clear_kernel_node_hotplug(): 2b54ab3c66d4 ("x86/mm/numa: Fix memory corruption on 32-bit NUMA kernels") ... and the bug was indirectly caused by poor coding style, such as using start/end local variables unnecessarily, which lost the physaddr_t type. So make the code more readable and try to fully comment all the thinking behind the logic. No change in functionality.
