[PATCH] Remove old node based policy interface from mempolicy.c

[Christoph Lameter]

mempolicy.c contains provisional interface for huge page allocation
based on node numbers. This is in use in SLES9 but was never used (AFAIK) 
in upstream versions of Linux.

Huge page allocations now use zonelists to figure out where to allocate pages.
The use of zonelists allows us to find the closest hugepage which was
difficult to do with the SLES9 interface. As a result SLES9 never supported
the consideration of the NUMA distance for huge page allocations.

Remove the obsolete functions.
