Subject: mm: fix invalid node in alloc_migrate_target()
From: Xishi Qiu <qiuxishi@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 6f25a14a7053b69917e2ebea0d31dd444cd31fd5 upstream.
It is incorrect to use next_node to find a target node, it will return
MAX_NUMNODES or invalid node. This will lead to crash in buddy system
allocation.
