Set the low water mark for hot pages in pcp to zero.

(akpm: for the life of me I cannot remember why we created pcp->low.  Neither
can Martin and the changelog is silent.  Maybe it was just a brainfart, but I
have this feeling that there was a reason.  If not, we should remove the
fields completely.  We'll see.)
