mm: fix panic in __alloc_pages
There is a kernel panic caused by pcpu_alloc_pages() passing offlined and uninitialized node to alloc_pages_node() leading to panic by NULL dereferencing uninitialized NODE_DATA(nid). CPU2 has been hot-added BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 0000000000001608 #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page PGD 0 P4D 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: systemd Tainted: G E 5.15.0-rc7+ #11 Hardware name: VMware, Inc.

Hot adding CPU and memoryless node does not bring the node to online state. Memoryless node will be onlined only during the onlining its CPU. Node can be in one of the following states: 1. not present.(nid == NUMA_NO_NODE) 2. present, but offline (nid > NUMA_NO_NODE, node_online(nid) == 0, NODE_DATA(nid) == NULL) 3. present and online (nid > NUMA_NO_NODE, node_online(nid) > 0, NODE_DATA(nid) != NULL) Percpu code is doing allocations for all possible CPUs. The issue happens when it serves hot added but not yet onlined CPU when its node is in 2nd state. This node is not ready to use, fallback to numa_mem_id().
