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.

NOTE:
These directories/files appear after physical memory hotplug phase.
If CONFIG_NUMA is enabled the
/sys/devices/system/memory/memoryXXX memory section
directories can also be accessed via symbolic links located in
the /sys/devices/system/node/node* directories. For example:
If CONFIG_NUMA is enabled the memoryXXX/ directories can also be accessed
via symbolic links located in the /sys/devices/system/node/node* directories.
For example:
/sys/devices/system/node/node0/memory9 -> ../../memory/memory9
A backlink will also be created:
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory9/node0 -> ../../node/node0
