x86, numa: Implement pfn -> nid mapping granularity check
SPARSEMEM w/o VMEMMAP and DISCONTIGMEM, both used only on 32bit, use sections array to map pfn to nid which is limited in granularity. If NUMA nodes are laid out such that the mapping cannot be accurate, boot will fail triggering BUG_ON() in mminit_verify_page_links(). On 32bit, it's 512MiB w/ PAE and SPARSEMEM. This seems to have been granular enough until commit 2706a0bf7b (x86, NUMA: Enable CONFIG_AMD_NUMA on 32bit too). Apparently, there is a machine which aligns NUMA nodes to 128MiB and has only AMD NUMA but not SRAT. This led to the following BUG_ON().

This makes the problematic machine boot w/ flatmem by rejecting the NUMA config and provides protection against crazy NUMA configurations.
