Huang Shijie f9899c0281 NUMA: early use of cpu_to_node() returns 0 instead of the correct node id
During the kernel booting, the generic cpu_to_node() is called too early
in arm64, powerpc and riscv when CONFIG_NUMA is enabled.

There are at least four places in the common code where
the generic cpu_to_node() is called before it is initialized:
	   1.) early_trace_init()         in kernel/trace/trace.c
	   2.) sched_init()               in kernel/sched/core.c
	   3.) init_sched_fair_class()    in kernel/sched/fair.c
	   4.) workqueue_init_early()     in kernel/workqueue.c

This will harm performance since there is an increase in off node
accesses.

In order to fix the bug, the patch introduces early_numa_node_init() which
is called after smp_prepare_boot_cpu() in start_kernel. 
early_numa_node_init will initialize the "numa_node" as soon as the
early_cpu_to_node() is ready, before the cpu_to_node() is called at the
first time.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
