Subject: [patch -mm 3/5] x86_64: fixed-size remaining fake nodes

Extends the numa=fake x86_64 command-line option to split the remaining
system memory into nodes of fixed size.  Any leftover memory is allocated
to a final node unless the command-line ends with a comma.

For example:
  numa=fake=2*512,*128	gives two 512M nodes and the remaining system
			memory is split into nodes of 128M each.
