memblock, numa: binary search node id
Current early_pfn_to_nid() on arch that support memblock go over memblock.memory one by one, so will take too many try near the end. We can use existing memblock_search to find the node id for given pfn, that could save some time on bigger system that have many entries memblock.memory array. Here are the timing differences for several machines. In each case with the patch less time was spent in __early_pfn_to_nid(). 3.11-rc5 with patch difference (%) -------- ---------- -------------- UV1: 256 nodes 9TB: 411.66 402.47 -9.19 (2.23%) UV2: 255 nodes 16TB: 1141.02 1138.12 -2.90 (0.25%) UV2: 64 nodes 2TB: 128.15 126.53 -1.62 (1.26%) UV2: 32 nodes 2TB: 121.87 121.07 -0.80 (0.66%) Time in seconds.
