Subject: kernel/profile.c: replace cpu_to_mem() with cpu_to_node()

Function profile_cpu_callback() allocates memory without specifying
__GFP_THISNODE flag, so replace cpu_to_mem() with cpu_to_node() because
cpu_to_mem() may cause suboptimal memory allocation if there's no free
memory on the node returned by cpu_to_mem().

It's safe to use cpu_to_mem() because build_all_zonelists() also builds
suitable fallback zonelist for memoryless node.
