The associativity details of the newly added resourced are collected from
the hypervisor via "ibm,configure-connector" rtas call. Update the numa
distance details of the newly added numa node after the above call.

Instead of updating NUMA distance every time we lookup a node id
from the associativity property, add helpers that can be used
during boot which does this only once. Also remove the distance
update from node id lookup helpers.

Currently, we duplicate parsing code for ibm,associativity and
ibm,associativity-lookup-arrays in the kernel. The associativity array provided
by these device tree properties are very similar and hence can use
a helper to parse the node id and numa distance details.

There are a handful of nits it would be nice to clean up as followups, though:

[snip]
+static int get_nid_and_numa_distance(struct drmem_lmb *lmb)
+{
+	struct assoc_arrays aa = { .arrays = NULL };
+	int default_nid = NUMA_NO_NODE;
I don't think there's any point to the 'default_nid' variable.
+	int nid = default_nid;
+	int rc, index;
+
+	if ((primary_domain_index < 0) || !numa_enabled)
+		return default_nid;
+
+	rc = of_get_assoc_arrays(&aa);
+	if (rc)
+		return default_nid;
+
+	if (primary_domain_index <= aa.array_sz &&
You don't need this test any more - it's included in __associativity_to_nid().
