[PATCH] zone gfp_flags generate from ZONE_ constants

[Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org>]

zone gfp_flags generate from ZONE_ constants

Change the allocation of the __GFP_zone style zone modifiers so that
they are generated from the values of the ZONE_zone definitions.
Note that when no zone modifiers are specified select the default
zone, typically ZONE_NORMAL.
