Why I did like this is because my original concerns are:
1. When I introduced the CONFIG_NUMA. Users will be using a code base on
   this commit by accident.
2. If users select CONFIG_NUMA, but not all NUMA data are not initialized
   properly. The system may not work properly.
3. So I created the fake node to initialize the NUMA data, before we parser
   real data from DTB.
4. In this case, user can work well with CONFIG_NUMA is enabled, without
   this series is completed.

It seems I thought too much. If these concerns are not necessary. I am
OK to re-order this series.
