When building for Power with CONFIG_DEBUG unset, a compiler error gets
raised inside page_alloc.c's node_to_scrub function:
common/page_alloc.c: In function 'node_to_scrub.part.0':
common/page_alloc.c:1217:29: error: array subscript 1 is above array
bounds of 'long unsigned int[1]' [-Werror=array-bounds]
1217 | if ( node_need_scrub[node] )
It appears that this is a false positive, given that in practice
cycle_node should never return a node ID >= MAX_NUMNODES as long as the
architecture's node_online_map is properly defined and initialized, so
this additional bounds check is only to satisfy GCC.
