mm, slub: prevent kmalloc_node crashes and memory leaks

Sachin reports [1] a crash in SLUB __slab_alloc():

This is a PowerPC platform with following NUMA topology:

  available: 2 nodes (0-1)
  node 0 cpus:
  node 0 size: 0 MB
  node 0 free: 0 MB
  node 1 cpus: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31
  node 1 size: 35247 MB
  node 1 free: 30907 MB
  node distances:
  node   0   1
    0:  10  40
    1:  40  10

  possible numa nodes: 0-31

This only happens with a mmotm patch "mm/memcontrol.c: allocate
shrinker_map on appropriate NUMA node" [2] which effectively calls
kmalloc_node for each possible node.  SLUB however only allocates
kmem_cache_node on online N_NORMAL_MEMORY nodes, and relies on
node_to_mem_node to return such valid node for other nodes since commit
a561ce00b09e ("slub: fall back to node_to_mem_node() node if allocating
on memoryless node").  This is however not true in this configuration
where the _node_numa_mem_ array is not initialized for nodes 0 and 2-31,
thus it contains zeroes and get_partial() ends up accessing
non-allocated kmem_cache_node.

A related issue was reported by Bharata (originally by Ramachandran) [3]
where a similar PowerPC configuration, but with mainline kernel without
patch [2] ends up allocating large amounts of pages by kmalloc-1k
kmalloc-512.  This seems to have the same underlying issue with
node_to_mem_node() not behaving as expected, and might probably also
lead to an infinite loop with CONFIG_SLUB_CPU_PARTIAL [4].

This patch should fix both issues by not relying on node_to_mem_node()
anymore and instead simply falling back to NUMA_NO_NODE, when
kmalloc_node(node) is attempted for a node that's not online, or has no
usable memory.  The "usable memory" condition is also changed from
node_present_pages() to N_NORMAL_MEMORY node state, as that is exactly
the condition that SLUB uses to allocate kmem_cache_node structures.
The check in get_partial() is removed completely, as the checks in
___slab_alloc() are now sufficient to prevent get_partial() being
reached with an invalid node.
