3.19.8-ckt19 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Xishi Qiu <qiuxishi at huawei.com>

commit 6f25a14a7053b69917e2ebea0d31dd444cd31fd5 upstream.

It is incorrect to use next_node to find a target node, it will return
MAX_NUMNODES or invalid node.  This will lead to crash in buddy system
allocation.

Fixes: c8721bbbdd36 ("mm: memory-hotplug: enable memory hotplug to handle hugepage")
