numa: Mark __node_set() as __always_inline

It is posible for some compilers to decide that __node_set() does
not need to be made turned into an inline function.  When the
compiler does this on an __init function calling it on
__initdata we get a section mismatch warning now.  Use
__always_inline to ensure that we will be inlined.
