The huge_zonelist() function in the memory policy layer provides an list of
zones ordered by NUMA distance.  The hugetlb layer will walk that list looking
for a zone that has available huge pages but is also in the nodeset of the
current cpuset.

This patch does not contain the folding of find_or_alloc_huge_page() that was
controversial in the earlier discussion.
