Wei Yang 5cd93c7532 um/mm: remove redundant assignment of max_low_pfn 
Current calculation of max_low_pfn is introduced in commit af84eab208
("[PATCH] uml: fix LVM crash"). It is intended to set max_low_pfn to the
same value as max_pfn.

But I am not sure why the max_pfn is set to totalram_pages, which
represents the number of usable pages in system instead of an absolute
page frame number. (The change history stops there.)

While we have already calculate it in setup_physmem(), so not necessary
to do it again.

Also this would help changing totalram_pages accounting, since we plan
to move the accounting into __free_pages_core(). With this change,
totalram_pages may not represent the total usable pages at this point,
since some pages would be deferred initialized.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
