Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/5] mm/memory_hotplug: Spare unnecessary calls to node_set_state

In node_states_check_changes_online, we check if the node will
have to be set for any of the N_*_MEMORY states after the pages
have been onlined.

Later on, we perform the activation in node_states_set_node.
Currently, in node_states_set_node we set the node to N_MEMORY
unconditionally.
This means that we will call node_set_state for N_MEMORY every time
pages go online, but we only need to do it if the node has not yet been
set for N_MEMORY.
