Subject: [PATCH] mm/khugepaged: sched to numa node when collapse huge page

collapse huge page is slow, specially when khugepaged daemon runs
on different numa node with that of huge page. It suffers from
huge page copying across nodes, also cache is not used for target
node. With this patch, khugepaged daemon switches to the same numa
node with huge page. It saves copying time and makes use of local
cache better.
