ACPI: HMAT: Fix initiator registration for single-initiator systems

[ Upstream commit 48d41809

 ]

In a system with a single initiator node, and one or more memory-only
'target' nodes, the memory-only node(s) would fail to register their
initiator node correctly. i.e. in sysfs:

  # ls /sys/devices/system/node/node0/access0/targets/
  node0

Where as the correct behavior should be:

  # ls /sys/devices/system/node/node0/access0/targets/
  node0 node1

This happened because hmat_register_target_initiators() uses list_sort()
to sort the initiator list, but the sort comparision function
(initiator_cmp()) is overloaded to also set the node mask's bits.

In a system with a single initiator, the list is singular, and list_sort
elides the comparision helper call. Thus the node mask never gets set,
and the subsequent search for the best initiator comes up empty.

Add a new helper to consume the sorted initiator list, and generate the
nodemask, decoupling it from the overloaded initiator_cmp() comparision
callback. This prevents the singular list corner case naturally, and
makes the code easier to follow as well.
