[mm PATCH v6 2/7] mm: Drop meminit_pfn_in_nid as it is redundant

[Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@linux.intel.com>]

As best as I can tell the meminit_pfn_in_nid call is completely redundant.
The deferred memory initialization is already making use of
for_each_free_mem_range which in turn will call into __next_mem_range which
will only return a memory range if it matches the node ID provided assuming
it is not NUMA_NO_NODE.

I am operating on the assumption that there are no zones or pgdata_t
structures that have a NUMA node of NUMA_NO_NODE associated with them. If
that is the case then __next_mem_range will never return a memory range
that doesn't match the zone's node ID and as such the check is redundant.

So one piece I would like to verify on this is if this works for ia64.
Technically it was using a different approach to get the node ID, but it
seems to have the node ID also encoded into the memblock. So I am
assuming this is okay, but would like to get confirmation on that.

On my x86_64 test system with 384GB of memory per node I saw a reduction in
initialization time from 2.80s to 1.85s as a result of this patch.
