[PATCH 05/10] mm: Create zonelists

[Ankita Garg]

The default zonelist that is node ordered contains all zones from within a
node and then all zones from the next node and so on. By introducing memory
regions, the primary aim is to group memory allocations to a given area of
memory together. The modified zonelists thus contain all zones from one
region, followed by all zones from the next region and so on. This ensures
that all the memory in one region is allocated before going over to the next
region, unless targetted memory allocations are performed.
