Subject: [PATCH v2] sched/numa, mm: do not promote folios to nodes not set N_MEMORY

While running qemu with a configuration where some CPUs don't have their
local memory and with a kernel numa balancing on, the following oops has
been observed. It's because of null pointers of ->zone_pgdat of zones of
those nodes that are not initialized properly at booting time. So should
avoid nodes not set N_MEMORY from getting promoted.
