I don't think we really need different mechanisms for different settings of
CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT. 

node_dev_init() runs after all struct pages are already initialized and can
always use pfn_to_nid().

kernel_init_freeable() ->
	page_alloc_init_late(); /* completes initialization of deferred pages */
	...
	do_basic_setup() ->
		driver_init() ->
			node_dev_init();

The next step could be refactoring register_mem_block_under_node_early() to
loop over memblock regions rather than over pfns.
