Subject: [patch 1/3] mm, oom: ensure memoryless node zonelist always includes
 zones

With memoryless node support being worked on, it's possible that for 
optimizations that a node may not have a non-NULL zonelist.  When CONFIG_NUMA is 
enabled and node 0 is memoryless, this means the zonelist for first_online_node 
may become NULL.

The oom killer requires a zonelist that includes all memory zones for the sysrq 
trigger and pagefault out of memory handler.

Ensure that a non-NULL zonelist is always passed to the oom killer.
