    The attached patch is NUMA-aware zonelist builder patch, which sorts
    zonelist in the order that near-node first, far-node last.  In lse-tech and
    linux-ia64, where most of NUMA people resides, no objections are raised so
    far.
    
    The patch adds NUMA-specific version of build_zonelists which calls
    find_next_best_node to select the next-nearest node to add to zonelist.
    
    The patch has no effect on flat NUMA platform.
