+ * comments in mmzone.h. Reduces cache footprint of zonelist scans
+ * that have to skip over alot of full or unallowed zones.
+ *
+ * If the zonelist cache is present in the passed in zonelist, then
+ * returns a pointer to the allowed node mask (either the current
+ * tasks mems_allowed, or node_online_map.)
+ *
+ * If the zonelist cache is not available for this zonelist, does
+ * nothing and returns NULL.
+ *
+ * If the fullzones BITMAP in the zonelist cache is stale (more than
+ * a second since last zap'd) then we zap it out (clear its bits.)
+ *
+ * We hold off even calling zlc_setup, until after we've checked the
+ * first zone in the zonelist, on the theory that most allocations will
+ * be satisfied from that first zone, so best to examine that zone as
+ * quickly as we can.
