A function called alloc_domheap_pages_on_node() should take a *node*
argument not a vcpu. Perhaps have a helper domain_default_node() which
returns node for d->vcpu[0] if d->vcpu[0] is non-NULL, else returns some
value meaning 'any'.

This will probably require some changes to page_alloc.c. That file currently
likes to pass cpu ids around rather than node ids, but it would really be
cleaner to pass around the latter.
