Subject: mm, meminit: allow early_pfn_to_nid to be used during runtime

early_pfn_to_nid historically was inherently not SMP safe but only used
during boot which is inherently single threaded or during hotplug which is
protected by a giant mutex.  With deferred memory initialisation there was
a thread-safe version introduced and the early_pfn_to_nid would trigger a
BUG_ON if used unsafely.  Memory hotplug hit that check.  This patch makes
early_pfn_to_nid introduces a lock to make it safe to use during hotplug.
