x86/mm/numa: Remove numa_nodemask_from_meminfo()
numa_nodemask_from_meminfo() generates a nodemask of nodes which have memory according to a meminfo descriptor. The two callsites of that function both set bits in copies of the numa_nodes_parsed nodemask. In both cases, the information in supplied numa_meminfo is a subset of numa_nodes_parsed. So setting those bits again is not really necessary. Here are the three call paths which show that the supplied numa_meminfo argument describes memory regions in nodes which are already in numa_nodes_parsed: x86_numa_init() numa_init() Case 1: acpi_numa_init() acpi_parse_memory_affinity() numa_add_memblk() node_set(numa_nodes_parsed) acpi_parse_slit() acpi_numa_slit_init() numa_set_distance() numa_alloc_distance() numa_nodemask_from_meminfo() Case 2: amd_numa_init() numa_add_memblk() node_set(numa_nodes_parsed) Case 3 dummy_numa_init() node_set(numa_nodes_parsed) numa_add_memblk() numa_register_memblks() numa_nodemask_from_meminfo() Thus, in all three cases, the respective bit in numa_nodes_parsed is set, which means it is not necessary to set it again in a copy of numa_nodes_parsed. So remove that function.
