Xianting Tian 576e85c5e9 blk-mq: remove the calling of local_memory_node()
We don't need to check whether the node is memoryless numa node before
calling allocator interface. SLUB(and SLAB,SLOB) relies on the page
allocator to pick a node. Page allocator should deal with memoryless
nodes just fine. It has zonelists constructed for each possible nodes.
And it will automatically fall back into a node which is closest to the
requested node. As long as __GFP_THISNODE is not enforced of course.

The code comments of kmem_cache_alloc_node() of SLAB also showed this:
 * Fallback to other node is possible if __GFP_THISNODE is not set.

blk-mq code doesn't set __GFP_THISNODE, so we can remove the calling
of local_memory_node().

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 Restructured Text 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.
