Could you please also include commit descriptions, i.e.
commit cea27eb2a202959783f81254c48c250ddd80e129 ("mm/memory-hotplug: fix
lowmem count overflow when offline pages")?

Could you please describe it a bit more (because it is non-obvious) how
the commit cea27eb effectively does the same totalhigh_pages adjustment
that is present in the commit 3dcc057?

It is in Linus' tree now but you're probably right that it should be
