memcg: fix init_page_cgroup nid with sparsemem
Commit 21a3c96 ("memcg: allocate memory cgroup structures in local nodes") makes page_cgroup allocation as NUMA aware. But that caused a problem https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36192. The problem was getting a NID from invalid struct pages, which was not initialized because it was out-of-node, out of [node_start_pfn, node_end_pfn) Now, with sparsemem, page_cgroup_init scans pfn from 0 to max_pfn. But this may scan a pfn which is not on any node and can access memmap which is not initialized. This makes page_cgroup_init() for SPARSEMEM node aware and remove a code to get nid from page->flags. (Then, we'll use valid NID always.)
