[PATCH] enable booting a NUMA system where some nodes have no memory 

When booting a NUMA system with nodes that have no memory (eg by limiting
memory), bootmem_alloc_core tried to find pages in an uninitialized
bootmem_map.  This caused a null pointer access.  This fix adds a check, so
that NULL is returned.  That will enable the caller (bootmem_alloc_nopanic)
to alloc memory on other without a panic.
