sched/numa: Fix NULL pointer dereference in task_numa_migrate()
The cpusets code can split up the scheduler's domain tree into smaller domains. Some of those smaller domains may not cross NUMA nodes at all, leading to a NULL pointer dereference on the per-cpu sd_numa pointer. Tasks cannot be migrated out of their domain, so the patch also sets p->numa_preferred_nid to whereever they are, to prevent the migration from being retried over and over again.
