mm: meminit: make __early_pfn_to_nid SMP-safe and introduce meminit_pfn_in_nid



__early_pfn_to_nid() use static variables to cache recent lookups as
memblock lookups are very expensive but it assumes that memory
initialisation is single-threaded.  Parallel initialisation of struct
pages will break that assumption so this patch makes __early_pfn_to_nid()
SMP-safe by requiring the caller to cache recent search information.
early_pfn_to_nid() keeps the same interface but is only safe to use early
in boot due to the use of a global static variable.  meminit_pfn_in_nid()
is an SMP-safe version that callers must maintain their own state for.
