On my workstation struct pglist_data take 174400, cachelines: 2725, members: 43 */

With Debian kernel configuration for 6.5 struct pglist data takes 174400
bytes so the increase here is below 1%.
For NUMA systems with a lot of nodes that shouldn't be a problem.

On x86 node_set_online() was a part of alloc_node_data() and I moved it
outside so it's called right after alloc_node_data(). On other
architectures the allocation didn't include that call, so there should be
no difference there.
