Fix potential crash with sys_move_pages
commit 6f5a55f1a6c5abee15a0e878e5c74d9f1569b8b0 upstream.
We incorrectly depended on the 'node_state/node_isset()' functions
testing the node range, rather than checking it explicitly. That's not
reliable, even if it might often happen to work. So do the proper
explicit test.
