pg_data_t数据结构2.6.37
这个数据结构用于非一致内存访问(NUMA)机器，表示比zone更高层次的内存区。
关于NUMA的文章
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/cn/linux/l-numa/
http://blog.chinaunix.net/uid-7295895-id-3076420.html
NUMA有多个节点，而每个节点内，访问内存的时间是相同的，不同的节点，访问内存的时间可以不同。
在NUMA机器上，每个NUMA 节点(node)有一个pg_data_t来描述它的内存布局。
对于UMA上，只有一个节点的情况，只是contig_page_data的静态pg_data_t结构。
#define NODE_DATA(nid) (&contig_page_data)
每个节点(node)，有可以分成区（zone)，如ZONE_DMA、ZONE_NORMAL、ZONE_HIGHMEM
每个区有自己的特殊用途，如ZONE_DMA是低端的物理内存，如ISA设备需要用到它；
ZONE_NORMAL的地址可以直接映射到线性地址空间中。
不过对于ARM来说，ZONE_DMA和ZONE_NORMAL应该没有啥区别。
/*
* The pg_data_t structure is used in machines with CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM
* (mostly NUMA machines?) to denote a higher-level memory zone than the
* zone denotes.
*
* On NUMA machines, each NUMA node would have a pg_data_t to describe
* it‘s memory layout.
*
* Memory statistics and page replacement data structures are maintained on a
* per-zone basis.
