The node is still onlined now, so there is no need to pass
this node's pgdat to build_all_zonelists().

I think we should build all zonelists when the zone has no
pages.

There is more than one zone in a node. So the zone can have
no pages when the node has some pages.

And we have called drain_all_pages(), I think there is no need
to call zone_pcp_update() here.
