Strip __cpuinit[data] from Node <-> PXM routines and supporting data structures.
Also make pxm_to_node_map and node_to_pxm_map local to the numa acpi module.

This fixes a bug triggered by the following conditions:
- boot on a machine with a SLIT table defined
- kernel is configured w/ CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n
- cat /sys/devices/system/node/node*/distance
This will cause an oops by calling into a freed memory section.

In particular, on x86_64, __node_distance calls node_to_pxm().

Yeah, those section warnings we get aren't just noise.

I think this patch is also needed in 2.6.21.x, yes?

Moving from __fooinit into .text is always safe.  Len, do you want me to
merge this up?

Yes, this bug exists in 2.6.21 as well.
