[Patch V3 2/9] kernel/profile.c: Replace cpu_to_mem() with cpu_to_node()

[Jiang Liu]

Function profile_cpu_callback() allocates memory without specifying
__GFP_THISNODE flag, so replace cpu_to_mem() with cpu_to_node()
because cpu_to_mem() may cause suboptimal memory allocation if
there's no free memory on the node returned by cpu_to_mem().

It's safe to use cpu_to_mem() because build_all_zonelists() also
builds suitable fallback zonelist for memoryless node.
