This implements allocation isolation for CDM nodes in buddy allocator by
discarding CDM memory zones all the time except in the cases where the gfp
flag has got __GFP_THISNODE or the nodemask contains CDM nodes in cases
where it is non NULL (explicit allocation request in the kernel or user
process MPOL_BIND policy based requests).
