numa: fix slab_node(MPOL_BIND)
When a node contains only HighMem memory, slab_node(MPOL_BIND) dereferences a NULL pointer. [ This code seems to go back all the way to commit 19770b32609b: "mm: filter based on a nodemask as well as a gfp_mask". Which was back in April 2008, and it got merged into 2.6.26. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Cc: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: Lee Schermerhorn <lee.schermerhorn@hp.com> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
