Subject: [PATCH] x86: Use online node real index in calulate_tbl_offset()

--- resending, hope in can make into -rc2.

Found one numa system that doesn't have ram installed with first socket
hang during executing init scripts.

bisect to:

|    x86: Spread tlb flush vector between nodes

It turns out when first socket is not online could have cpus on node1
tlb_offset set to bigger than NUM_INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTORS.

that could affect systems like 4 sockets, but socket 2 doesn't
have installed, sockets 3 will get too big tlb_offset.

Need to use real online node idx.
