Michal Privoznik c658764dec qemu: Don't use -mem-prealloc among with .prealloc=yes
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1624223

There are two ways to request memory preallocation on cmd line:
-mem-prealloc and .prealloc attribute for a memory-backend-file.
However, as it turns out it's not safe to use both at the same
time. If -mem-prealloc is used then qemu will fully allocate the
memory (this is done by actually touching every page that has
been allocated). Then, if .prealloc=yes is specified,
mbind(flags = MPOL_MF_STRICT | MPOL_MF_MOVE) is called which:

a) has to (possibly) move the memory to a different NUMA node,
b) can have no effect when hugepages are in play (thus ignoring user
request to place memory on desired NUMA nodes).

Prefer -mem-prealloc as it is more backward compatible
compared to switching to "-numa node,memdev=  + -object
memory-backend-file".
