[PATCH] kmalloc_node IRQ safety fix

In kmalloc_node we are checking if the allocation is for the same node when
interrupts are "on".  This may lead to an allocation on another node than
intended.

This patch just shifts the check for the current node in __cache_alloc_node
when interrupts are disabled.
