This addresses two issues:

1. Kmalloc_node() may intermittently return NULL if we are allocating
   from the current node and are unable to obtain memory for the current
   node from the page allocator.  This is because we call ___cache_alloc()
   if nodeid == numa_node_id() and ____cache_alloc is not able to fallback
   to other nodes.

   This was introduced in the 2.6.19 development cycle.  <= 2.6.18 in
   that case does not do a restricted allocation and blindly trusts the
   page allocator to have given us memory from the indicated node.  It
   inserts the page regardless of the node it came from into the queues for
   the current node.

2. If kmalloc_node() is used on a node that has not been bootstrapped
   yet then we may try to pass an invalid node number to
   ____cache_alloc_node() triggering a BUG().

   Change the function to call fallback_alloc() instead.  Only call
   fallback_alloc() if we are allowed to fallback at all.  The need to
   handle a node not bootstrapped yet also first surfaced in the 2.6.19
   cycle.

Update the comments since they were still describing the old kmalloc_node
from 2.6.12.
