Subject: [PATCH] drivers/of: Introduce ARCH_HAS_OWN_OF_NUMA

Some OF platforms (pseries and some SPARC systems) has their own
implementations of NUMA affinity detection rather than using the generic
OF_NUMA driver, which mainly exists for arm64. For other platforms one
of two fallbacks provided by the base OF driver are used depending on
CONFIG_NUMA.

In the CONFIG_NUMA=n case the fallback is an inline function in of.h.
In the =y case the fallback is a real function which is defined as a
weak symbol so that it may be overwritten by the architecture if desired.

The problem with this arrangement is that the real implementations all
export of_node_to_nid(). Unfortunately it's not possible to export the
fallback since it would clash with the non-weak version. As a result
we get build failures when:

a) CONFIG_NUMA=y && CONFIG_OF=y, and
b) The platform doesn't implement of_node_to_nid(), and
c) A module uses of_node_to_nid()

Given b) will be true for most platforms this is fairly easy to hit
and has been observed on ia64 and x86.

This patch remedies the problem by introducing the ARCH_HAS_OWN_OF_NUMA
Kconfig option which is selected if an architecture provides an
implementation of of_node_to_nid(). If a platform does not use it's own,
or the generic OF_NUMA, then always use the inline fallback in of.h so
we don't need to futz around with exports.
