Subject: [PATCH V3] mm: numa: bugfix for LAST_CPUPID_NOT_IN_PAGE_FLAGS

From: Liu Ping Fan <pingfank@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

When doing some numa tests on powerpc, I triggered an oops bug. I find
it is caused by using page->_last_cpupid.  It should be initialized as
"-1 & LAST_CPUPID_MASK", but not "-1". Otherwise, in task_numa_fault(),
we will miss the checking (last_cpupid == (-1 & LAST_CPUPID_MASK)).
And finally cause an oops bug in task_numa_group(), since the online cpu is
less than possible cpu. This happen with CONFIG_SPARSE_VMEMMAP disabled

Changes from V2:
* Also updated cpupid_xchg_last to use LAST_CPUPID_MASK. We use the
  that function with value -1
* Update Author information after taking to Liu
