Hi Mike.

Rather than use the memblock_alloc_base that returns a physical address and
then convert this address to the virtual one, use appropriate memblock
function that returns a virtual address.

There is a small functional change in the allocation of then NODE_DATA().
Instead of panicing if the local allocation failed, the non-local
allocation attempt will be made.

The new code will always assign NODE_DATA(nid), where the old
code only assigned NODE_DATA(nid) in the good case.
I dunno if this is an issue, just noticed the difference and
wanted to point it out.
