Joonsoo Kim ad2c814441 topology: add support for node_to_mem_node() to determine the fallback node
Anton noticed (http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg67489.html) that
on ppc LPARs with memoryless nodes, a large amount of memory was consumed
by slabs and was marked unreclaimable.  He tracked it down to slab
deactivations in the SLUB core when we allocate remotely, leading to poor
efficiency always when memoryless nodes are present.

After much discussion, Joonsoo provided a few patches that help
significantly.  They don't resolve the problem altogether:

 - memory hotplug still needs testing, that is when a memoryless node
   becomes memory-ful, we want to dtrt
 - there are other reasons for going off-node than memoryless nodes,
   e.g., fully exhausted local nodes

Neither case is resolved with this series, but I don't think that should
block their acceptance, as they can be explored/resolved with follow-on
patches.

The series consists of:

[1/3] topology: add support for node_to_mem_node() to determine the
      fallback node

[2/3] slub: fallback to node_to_mem_node() node if allocating on
      memoryless node

      - Joonsoo's patches to cache the nearest node with memory for each
        NUMA node

[3/3] Partial revert of 81c98869fa (""kthread: ensure locality of
      task_struct allocations")

 - At Tejun's request, keep the knowledge of memoryless node fallback
   to the allocator core.

This patch (of 3):

We need to determine the fallback node in slub allocator if the allocation
target node is memoryless node.  Without it, the SLUB wrongly select the
node which has no memory and can't use a partial slab, because of node
mismatch.  Introduced function, node_to_mem_node(X), will return a node Y
with memory that has the nearest distance.  If X is memoryless node, it
will return nearest distance node, but, if X is normal node, it will
return itself.

We will use this function in following patch to determine the fallback
node.
