Dave Hansen 408fde81c1 [PATCH] remove non-DISCONTIG use of pgdat->node_mem_map
This patch effectively eliminates direct use of pgdat->node_mem_map outside
of the DISCONTIG code.  On a flat memory system, these fields aren't
currently used, neither are they on a sparsemem system.

There was also a node_mem_map(nid) macro on many architectures.  Its use
along with the use of ->node_mem_map itself was not consistent.  It has
been removed in favor of two new, more explicit, arch-independent macros:

	pgdat_page_nr(pgdat, pagenr)
	nid_page_nr(nid, pagenr)

I called them "pgdat" and "nid" because we overload the term "node" to mean
"NUMA node", "DISCONTIG node" or "pg_data_t" in very confusing ways.  I
believe the newer names are much clearer.

These macros can be overridden in the sparsemem case with a theoretically
slower operation using node_start_pfn and pfn_to_page(), instead.  We could
make this the only behavior if people want, but I don't want to change too
much at once.  One thing at a time.

This patch removes more code than it adds.

Compile tested on alpha, alpha discontig, arm, arm-discontig, i386, i386
generic, NUMAQ, Summit, ppc64, ppc64 discontig, and x86_64.  Full list
here: http://sr71.net/patches/2.6.12/2.6.12-rc1-mhp2/configs/

Boot tested on NUMAQ, x86 SMP and ppc64 power4/5 LPARs.
