mm: use two zonelist that are filtered by GFP mask

Currently a node has two sets of zonelists, one for each zone type in the
system and a second set for GFP_THISNODE allocations.  Based on the zones
allowed by a gfp mask, one of these zonelists is selected.  All of these
zonelists consume memory and occupy cache lines.

This patch replaces the multiple zonelists per-node with two zonelists.  The
first contains all populated zones in the system, ordered by distance, for
fallback allocations when the target/preferred node has no free pages.  The
second contains all populated zones in the node suitable for GFP_THISNODE
allocations.

An iterator macro is introduced called for_each_zone_zonelist() that interates
through each zone allowed by the GFP flags in the selected zonelist.
