[BUGFIX][PATCH] fix node hotplug zonelist build

[KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com>]

At memory hotplug, we reflesh zonelists when we online a page in a new zone.
It means that Node's zonelist is not initialized until pages are onlined. So,
for example, "nid" passed by MEM_GOING_ONLINE notifier will point to
NODE_DATA(nid) which has no zone fallback list. Moreover, if we hot-add
cpu-only nodes, alloc_pages() will do no fallback.

This patch makes zonelist when a new pgdata is available.

Note: in production, at fujitsu, memory should be onlined before cpu
      and our server didn't have any memory-less nodes and had no problems.

      But recent changes in MEM_GOING_ONLINE+page_cgroup
      will access not initialized zonelist of node.
      Anyway, there are memory-less node and we need some care.
