Node 0 might be offline as well as any other numa node,
in this case kernel cannot handle memory allocation and crashes.

This is going to break any NUMA machine that enables OF and expects
the weak function to work.
Why? NUMA_NO_NODE == -1 -- this's standard "no-affinity" signal.
As I see powerpc/sparc versions of of_node_to_nid returns -1 if they
cannot find out which node should be used.
