Nishanth Aravamudan 3af229f207 powerpc/numa: Reset node_possible_map to only node_online_map
Raghu noticed an issue with excessive memory allocation on power with a
simple cgroup test, specifically, in mem_cgroup_css_alloc ->
for_each_node -> alloc_mem_cgroup_per_zone_info(), which ends up blowing
up the kmalloc-2048 slab (to the order of 200MB for 400 cgroup
directories).

The underlying issue is that NODES_SHIFT on power is 8 (256 NUMA nodes
possible), which defines node_possible_map, which in turn defines the
value of nr_node_ids in setup_nr_node_ids and the iteration of
for_each_node.

In practice, we never see a system with 256 NUMA nodes, and in fact, we
do not support node hotplug on power in the first place, so the nodes
that are online when we come up are the nodes that will be present for
the lifetime of this kernel. So let's, at least, drop the NUMA possible
map down to the online map at runtime. This is similar to what x86 does
in its initialization routines.

mem_cgroup_css_alloc should also be fixed to only iterate over
memory-populated nodes and handle hotplug, but that is a separate
change.
