Subject[PATCH 2/4] x86_64: fix dma_alloc_pages v2

one system with two nodes and two ht links on every node.
the bios already have _pxm for two links.

when no ram installed for node1 will have panic.

reason: the device on second chain will get node = 1 from dev_to_node...via
pci_acpi_scan_root.
but node1 doesn't have ram installed.
in dma_alloc_pages it will pass check with first_node(node_online_map)...
and will have problem with __alloc_pages in alloc_pages_node.

this patch will use updated dev_to node, so remove check about fist_node etc
