Mike Rapoport 9691a071aa mm: use free_area_init() instead of free_area_init_nodes()
free_area_init() has effectively became a wrapper for
free_area_init_nodes() and there is no point of keeping it.  Still
free_area_init() name is shorter and more general as it does not imply
necessity to initialize multiple nodes.

Rename free_area_init_nodes() to free_area_init(), update the callers and
drop old version of free_area_init().

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 Restructured Text 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.
