If we failed to setup hotplug state callbacks for mm/demotion:online in
some corner cases, node_demotion will be left uninitialized. Invalid node
might be returned from the next_demotion_node() when doing reclaim-based
migration. Use kcalloc to allocate node_demotion to fix the issue.

Nit: not sure if this is worthy of this rare corner case, but I think the target demotion nodes' default value should be NUMA_NO_NODE instead of 0.
