There is a kernel panic caused by __alloc_pages() accessing
uninitialized NODE_DATA(nid). Uninitialized node data exists
during the time when CPU with memoryless node was added but
not onlined yet. Panic can be easy reproduced by disabling
udev rule for automatic onlining hot added CPU followed by
CPU with memoryless node hot add.
This is a panic caused by percpu code doing allocations for
all possible CPUs and hitting this issue:
CPU2 has been hot-added

Node can be in one of the following states:
1. not present (nid == NUMA_NO_NODE)
2. present, but offline (nid > NUMA_NO_NODE, node_online(nid) == 0,
NODE_DATA(nid) == NULL)
3. present and online (nid > NUMA_NO_NODE, node_online(nid) > 0,
NODE_DATA(nid) != NULL)
alloc_page_{bulk_array}node() functions verify for nid validity only
and do not check if nid is online. Enhanced verification check allows
to handle page allocation when node is in 2nd state.
