NAK. This is changing slob behavior. With no node specified it must use
alloc_pages because that obeys NUMA memory policies etc etc. It should not
force allocation from the current node like what is happening here after
the patch. See the code in slub.c that is similar.
Doh, somehow I convinced myself that there's #else and alloc_pages() is only
used for !CONFIG_NUMA so it doesn't matter. Here's a fixed version.
