[IA64] Cleanup use of various #defines related to nodes
Some of the SN code & #defines related to compact nodes & IO discovery
have gotten stale over the years. This patch attempts to clean them up.
Some of the various SN MAX_xxx #defines were also unclear & misused.
The primary changes are:
- use MAX_NUMNODES. This is the generic linux #define for the number
of nodes that are known to the generic kernel. Arrays & loops
for constructs that are 1:1 with linux-defined nodes should
use the linux #define - not an SN equivalent.
- use MAX_COMPACT_NODES for MAX_NUMNODES + NUM_TIOS. This is the
number of nodes in the SSI system. Compact nodes are a hack to
get around the IA64 architectural limit of 256 nodes. Large SGI
systems have more than 256 nodes. When we upgrade to ACPI3.0,
I _hope_ that all nodes will be real nodes that are known to
the generic kernel. That will allow us to delete the notion
of "compact nodes".
- add MAX_NUMALINK_NODES for the total number of nodes that
are in the numalink domain - all partitions.
- simplified (understandable) scan_for_ionodes()
- small amount of cleanup related to cnodes
