zonelists gfp_zone() is really gfp_zonelist()
[Following on from the discussions of the indexing of zonelists it
is clear that its not at all clear that this is not indexed by zone.
A major contributer to this is gfp_zone() which is used to generated
these indexes from the GFP flags.]
gfp_zone() returns an index into the per node zonelists. This list
is indexed by 'gfp modifier space' not by zones and the section
of the flags so extracted represents this space. It being called
gfp_zone() invites confusion between 'gfp modifier space' and
zone numbering. Take this oppotunity to comment the return type
of this function.
