[PATCH 1/11] hugetlb:  rework hstate_next_node* functions

Against:  2.6.31-mmotm-090914-0157

V2: + cleaned up comments, removed some deemed unnecessary,
      add some suggested by review
    + removed check for !current in huge_mpol_nodes_allowed().
    + added 'current->comm' to warning message in huge_mpol_nodes_allowed().
    + added VM_BUG_ON() assertion in hugetlb.c next_node_allowed() to
      catch out of range node id.
    + add examples to patch description

V3: + factored this "cleanup" patch out of V2 patch 2/3
    + moved ahead of patch to add nodes_allowed mask to alloc funcs
      as this patch is somewhat independent from using task mempolicy
      to control huge page allocation and freeing.

Modify the hstate_next_node* functions to allow them to be called to
obtain the "start_nid".  Then, whereas prior to this patch we
unconditionally called hstate_next_node_to_{alloc|free}(), whether
or not we successfully allocated/freed a huge page on the node,
now we only call these functions on failure to alloc/free to advance
to next allowed node.

Factor out the next_node_allowed() function to handle wrap at end
of node_online_map.  In this version, the allowed nodes include all 
of the online nodes.
