page allocator: do not check NUMA node ID when the caller knows the node is valid

Callers of alloc_pages_node() can optionally specify -1 as a node to mean
"allocate from the current node".  However, a number of the callers in
fast paths know for a fact their node is valid.  To avoid a comparison and
branch, this patch adds alloc_pages_exact_node() that only checks the nid
with VM_BUG_ON().  Callers that know their node is valid are then
converted.
