In architecture like powerpc, we can have cpus without any local memory

can result in memory allocation hints for block hctx->numa_node populated
with node values which does not have real memory.
Instead use local_memory_node(), which is guaranteed to have memory.
local_memory_node is a noop in other architectures that does not support
memoryless nodes.
Applied for 4.5, thanks.
