Subject: hugetlbfs: fix issue of preallocation of gigantic pages can't work
Preallocation of gigantic pages can't work bacause of commit b5389086ad7b
("hugetlbfs: extend the definition of hugepages parameter to support node
allocation"). When nid is NUMA_NO_NODE(-1), alloc_bootmem_huge_page will
always return without doing allocation. Fix this by adding more check.
