[RFC 1/2] slub: Avoid trying to allocate memory on offline nodes

[Jeremy Linton <jeremy.linton@xxxxxxx>]

If a user calls the *alloc_node() functions with an invalid node
its possible to crash in alloc_pages_nodemask because NODE_DATA()
returns a bad node, which propogates into the node zonelist in
prepare_alloc_pages. This avoids that by not trying to allocate
new slabs against offline nodes.

(example backtrace)

  __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x128/0xf48
  allocate_slab+0x94/0x528
  new_slab+0x68/0xc8
  ___slab_alloc+0x44c/0x520
  __slab_alloc+0x50/0x68
  kmem_cache_alloc_node_trace+0xe0/0x230
