A misbehaving qemu created a situation where the ACPI SRAT table
advertised one fewer proximity domains than intended. The NFIT table did
describe all the expected proximity domains. This caused the device dax
driver to assign an impossible target_node to the device, and when
hotplugged as system memory, this would fail with the following
signature:

Add a check in the kmem driver to ensure that the target_node for the
device in question is in the nodes_possible mask.
