The system may panic when initialisation is done when almost all the
memory is assigned to the huge pages using the kernel command line
parameter hugepage=xxxx.  Panic may occur like this:

  Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000000
  Faulting instruction address: 0xc000000000302b88
  Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]

This is a chicken and egg issue where the kernel try to get free memory
when allocating per node data in mem_cgroup_init(), but in that path
mem_cgroup_soft_limit_reclaim() is called which assumes that these data
are allocated.

As mem_cgroup_soft_limit_reclaim() is best effort, it should return when
these data are not yet allocated.

This patch also fixes potential null pointer access in
mem_cgroup_remove_from_trees() and mem_cgroup_update_tree().
