register_one_node() and register_node() are small functions.
This patch merges them into a single function named register_node()
to improve code readability.
No functional changes are introduced.

Wondering why we did have this temporary setting of the node_devices[] in
there. But I cannot immediately spot why it was required.
register_cpu_under_node() references node_devices, so that assignment can
be moved just before the loop that adds CPUs to node.
Sure.
Thank you
