cpu/mem hotplug: enable CPUs online before local memory online

Enable users to online CPUs even if the CPUs belongs to a numa node which
doesn't have onlined local memory.

The zonlists(pg_data_t.node_zonelists[]) of a numa node are created either
in system boot/init period, or at the time of local memory online.  For a
numa node without onlined local memory, its zonelists are not initialized
at present.  As a result, any memory allocation operations executed by
CPUs within this node will fail.  In fact, an out-of-memory error is
triggered when attempt to online CPUs before memory comes to online.

This patch tries to create zonelists for such numa nodes, so that the
memory allocation for this node can be fallback'ed to other nodes.
