[PATCH -tip] x86: uv - prevent NULL dereference in uv_system_init

[Cyrill Gorcunov]

We may reach NULL dereference oops if kmalloc failed.
Lets do panic better with sensible message.

Actually there is a dubious place as well at early_get_nodeid.
Is there a guarantee that we _never_ fail in early_ioremap?
