struct request_queue is allocated with __GFP_ZERO so its "node" field is 
zero before initialization.  This causes an oops if node 0 is offline in 
the page allocator because its zonelists are not initialized.  From Dave 
Young's dmesg:

	SRAT: Node 1 PXM 2 0-d0000000
	SRAT: Node 1 PXM 2 100000000-330000000
	SRAT: Node 0 PXM 1 330000000-630000000
	Initmem setup node 1 0000000000000000-000000000affb000
	...
	Built 1 zonelists in Node order, mobility grouping on.
	...
	BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 0000000000001c08
	IP: [<ffffffff8111c355>] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0xb5/0x870

and __alloc_pages_nodemask+0xb5 translates to a NULL pointer on 
zonelist->_zonerefs.

The fix is to initialize q->node at the time of allocation so the correct 
node is passed to the slab allocator later.

Since blk_init_allocated_queue_node() is no longer needed, merge it with 
blk_init_allocated_queue().
