[PATCH] mm/memory_hotplug: just build zonelist for new added node

From: Wei Yang
Date: Mon Jun 26 2017 - 00:00:19 EST


In commit (9adb62a5df9c0fbef7) "mm/hotplug: correctly setup fallback
zonelists when creating new pgdat" tries to build the correct zonelist for
a new added node, while it is not necessary to rebuild it for already exist
nodes.

In build_zonelists(), it will iterate on nodes with memory. For a new added
node, it will have memory until node_states_set_node() is called in
online_pages().

This patch will avoid to rebuild the zonelists for already exist nodes.
