Subject: [PATCH v2] NUMA: Early use of cpu_to_node() returns 0 instead of the correct node id

During the kernel booting, the generic cpu_to_node() is called too early in
arm64, powerpc and riscv when CONFIG_NUMA is enabled.

For arm64/powerpc/riscv, there are at least four places in the common code
where the generic cpu_to_node() is called before it is initialized:
	   1.) early_trace_init()         in kernel/trace/trace.c
	   2.) sched_init()               in kernel/sched/core.c
	   3.) init_sched_fair_class()    in kernel/sched/fair.c
	   4.) workqueue_init_early()     in kernel/workqueue.c

In order to fix the bug, the patch changes generic cpu_to_node to
function pointer, and export it for kernel modules.
Introduce smp_prepare_boot_cpu_start() to wrap the original
smp_prepare_boot_cpu(), and set cpu_to_node with early_cpu_to_node.
Introduce smp_prepare_cpus_done() to wrap the original smp_prepare_cpus(),
and set the cpu_to_node to formal _cpu_to_node().

v1 --> v2:
	In order to fix the x86 compiling error, move the cpu_to_node()
       	from driver/base/arch_numa.c to driver/base/node.c.

	v1: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2024-January/896160.html

	An old different title patch:
