memory-hotplug: do not allocate pgdat if it was not freed when offline.
Since there is no way to guarentee the address of pgdat/zone is not on stack of any kernel threads or used by other kernel objects without reference counting or other symchronizing method, we cannot reset node_data and free pgdat when offlining a node. Just reset pgdat to 0 and reuse the memory when the node is online again. The problem is suggested by Kamezawa Hiroyuki. The idea is from Wen Congyang. NOTE: If we don't reset pgdat to 0, the WARN_ON in free_area_init_node() will be triggered.
