From: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm/mempolicy.c:offset_il_node() document and clarify

This code was pretty obscure and was relying upon obscure side-effects of
next_node(-1, ...) and was relying upon NUMA_NO_NODE being equal to -1.

Clean that all up and document the function's intent.
