[PATCH 3/11] - hugetlb:  introduce alloc_nodemask_of_node()

Against:  2.6.31-mmotm-090914-0157

New in V5 of series

V6: + rename 'init_nodemask_of_nodes()' to 'init_nodemask_of_node()'
    + redefine init_nodemask_of_node() as static inline fcn
    + move this patch back 1 in series

Introduce nodemask macro to allocate a nodemask and 
initialize it to contain a single node, using the macro
init_nodemask_of_node() factored out of the nodemask_of_node()
macro.

alloc_nodemask_of_node() coded as a macro to avoid header
dependency hell.

This will be used to construct the huge pages "nodes_allowed"
nodemask for a single node when basing nodes_allowed on a
preferred/local mempolicy or when a persistent huge page
pool page count is modified via a per node sysfs attribute.
