2.6.32-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

----------------
From: Haicheng Li <haicheng.li(a)linux.intel.com>

commit f3186a9c51eabe75b2780153ed7f07778d78b16e upstream.

Comparing with existing code, it's a simpler way to use kzalloc_node()
to ensure that each unused alien cache entry is NULL.
