mm: take memory hotplug lock within numa_zonelist_order_handler()

Andre Wild reported the following warning:

This can be easily triggered with e.g.

    echo n > /proc/sys/vm/numa_zonelist_order

In commit 3f906ba23689a ("mm/memory-hotplug: switch locking to a percpu
rwsem") memory hotplug locking was changed to fix a potential deadlock.

This also switched the stop_machine() invocation within
build_all_zonelists() to stop_machine_cpuslocked() which now expects
that online cpus are locked when being called.

This assumption is not true if build_all_zonelists() is being called
from numa_zonelist_order_handler().

In order to fix this simply add a mem_hotplug_begin()/mem_hotplug_done()
pair to numa_zonelist_order_handler().
