Subject: [PATCH v3] Check the node argument passed to cpumask_of_node

Commit e0cd516 "PCI: derive nearby CPUs from device's instead of bus' NUMA information"
causes an null pointer dereference when reading from the sysfs attributes local_cpu*
on Intel machines with no ACPI NUMA proximity info, since dev->numa_node gets set to -1
for all PCI devices, which then gets passed to cpumask_of_node.

Add a check to prevent this.
