As I look the code quickly, free_area_init_node initializes node_id and
node_start_pfn doublely. They were initialized by setup_node_data.

Could you test below patch? It's not a totally right way to fix it but
I want to confirm why it happens.

(I'm on vacation now so please understand that it hard to reach me)
