Kirill Tkhai d8b163c4c6 sched/numa: Init numa balancing fields of init_task
We do not initialize init_task.numa_preferred_nid,
but this value is inherited by userspace "init"
process:

rest_init()->kernel_thread(kernel_init)->do_fork(CLONE_VM);

__sched_fork()
{
	if (clone_flags & CLONE_VM)
		p->numa_preferred_nid = current->numa_preferred_nid;
	else
		p->numa_preferred_nid = -1;
}

kernel_init() becomes userspace "init" process.

So, we propagate garbage nid to userspace, and it may be used
during numa balancing.

Currently, we do not have reports about this brings a problem,
but it seem we should set it for sure.

Even if init_task.numa_preferred_nid is zero, we may meet a weird
configuration without nid#0. On sparc64, where processors are
numbered physically, I saw a machine without cpu#1, while cpu#2
existed. Possible, something similar may be with numa nodes.
So, let's initialize it and be sure we're safe.
