Subject: mem-hotplug: Don't clear the only node in new_node_page()
394e31d2c ("mem-hotplug: alloc new page from a nearest neighbor node when
mem-offline") introduced new_node_page() for memory hotplug.
In new_node_page(), the nid is cleared before calling
__alloc_pages_nodemask(). But if it is the only node of the system, and
the first round allocation fails, it will not be able to get memory from
an empty nodemask, and will trigger oom.
The patch checks whether it is the last node on the system, and if it is, then
don't clear the nid in the nodemask.
