Add auto zone ordering configuration. This function will select ZONE_ORDER_NODE when
- There are only ZONE_DMA or ZONE_DMA32. (or) size of (ZONE_DMA/DMA32) > (System Total Memory)/2 (or) Assume Node(A) * Node (A)'s total memory > System Total Memory/num_of_node+1 (and) Node (A)'s ZONE_DMA/DMA32 occupies 60% of Node(A)'s memory. otherwise, ZONE_ORDER_ZONE is selected. Note: a user can specifiy this ordering from boot option.
