Subject: [DEBUG 18/21] mm: Add debugfs interface to dump each node's zonelist information

Each individual node in the system has a ZONELIST_FALLBACK zonelist
and a ZONELIST_NOFALLBACK zonelist. These zonelists decide fallback
order of zones during memory allocations. Sometimes it helps to dump
these zonelists to see the priority order of various zones in them.

Particularly platforms which support memory hotplug into previously
non existing zones (at boot), this interface helps in visualizing
which all zonelists of the system at what priority level, the new
hot added memory ends up in. POWER is such a platform where all the
memory detected during boot time remains with ZONE_DMA for good but
then hot plug process can actually get new memory into ZONE_MOVABLE.
So having a way to get the snapshot of the zonelists on the system
after memory or node hot[un]plug is desirable. This change adds one
new debugfs interface (/sys/kernel/debug/zonelists) which will fetch
and dump this information.

Example zonelist information from a KVM guest with four NUMA nodes
on a POWER8 platform.

[NODE (0)]
	ZONELIST_FALLBACK
		(0) (Node 0) (DMA)
		(1) (Node 1) (DMA)
		(2) (Node 2) (DMA)
		(3) (Node 3) (DMA)
	ZONELIST_NOFALLBACK
		(0) (Node 0) (DMA)
[NODE (1)]
	ZONELIST_FALLBACK
		(0) (Node 1) (DMA)
		(1) (Node 2) (DMA)
		(2) (Node 3) (DMA)
		(3) (Node 0) (DMA)
	ZONELIST_NOFALLBACK
		(0) (Node 1) (DMA)
[NODE (2)]
	ZONELIST_FALLBACK
		(0) (Node 2) (DMA)
		(1) (Node 3) (DMA)
		(2) (Node 0) (DMA)
		(3) (Node 1) (DMA)
	ZONELIST_NOFALLBACK
		(0) (Node 2) (DMA)
[NODE (3)]
	ZONELIST_FALLBACK
		(0) (Node 3) (DMA)
		(1) (Node 0) (DMA)
		(2) (Node 1) (DMA)
		(3) (Node 2) (DMA)
	ZONELIST_NOFALLBACK
		(0) (Node 3) (DMA)
