OK, this is understandable.  If you don't mind I'll split this patch
into documentation and node patches separately.

Since kmalloc(size, gfp) == kmalloc_node(size, gfp, -1), I think
we can change this to implement alloc_cpumask_var() in terms of
alloc_cpumask_var_node(..., numa_node_id()).

Here's what I ended up with:

Add alloc_cpumask_var_node()

This will be needed in x86 code to allocate the domain and old_domain
cpumasks on the same node as where the containing irq_cfg struct is
allocated.
