    powerpc/mm/numa: skip NUMA_NO_NODE onlining in parse_numa_properties()
    
    [ Upstream commit 749ed4a20657bcea66a6e082ca3dc0d228cbec80 ]
    
    Executing node_set_online() when nid = NUMA_NO_NODE results in an
    undefined behavior. node_set_online() will call node_set_state(), into
    __node_set(), into set_bit(), and since NUMA_NO_NODE is -1 we'll end up
    doing a negative shift operation inside
    arch/powerpc/include/asm/bitops.h. This potential UB was detected
    running a kernel with CONFIG_UBSAN.
    
    The behavior was introduced by commit 10f78fd0dabb ("powerpc/numa: Fix a
    regression on memoryless node 0"), where the check for nid > 0 was
    removed to fix a problem that was happening with nid = 0, but the result
    is that now we're trying to online NUMA_NO_NODE nids as well.
    
    Checking for nid >= 0 will allow node 0 to be onlined while avoiding
    this UB with NUMA_NO_NODE.
