mm: add numa node symlink for memory section in sysfs
Commit c04fc586c (mm: show node to memory section relationship with
symlinks in sysfs) created symlinks from nodes to memory sections, e.g.
/sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory135 -> ../../memory/memory135
If you're examining the memory section though and are wondering what node
it might belong to, you can find it by grovelling around in sysfs, but
it's a little cumbersome.
Add a reverse symlink for each memory section that points back to the
node to which it belongs.
