This patches is created to fix the __pa() warning messages when CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL=y by unifying the allocation of pglist_data instances. In current implementation of node_data, if CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES=y, pglist_data is allocated by a memblock API. If CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES=n, we use a global variable named "contig_page_data". If CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL is not enabled. __pa() can handle both allocation and symbol cases. But if CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL is set, we will have the "virt_to_phys used for non-linear address" warning when booting. To fix the warning, always allocate pglist_data by memblock APIs and remove the usage of contig_page_data.
