Huang Ying ccae0f36d5 x86, fakenuma: Fix invalid starting node ID
Commit:

  cc9aec03e5 ("x86/numa_emulation: Introduce uniform split capability")

uses "-1" as the starting node ID, which causes the strange kernel log as
follows, when "numa=fake=32G" is added to the kernel command line:

    Faking node -1 at [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x0000000893ffffff] (35136MB)
    Faking node 0 at [mem 0x0000001840000000-0x000000203fffffff] (32768MB)
    Faking node 1 at [mem 0x0000000894000000-0x000000183fffffff] (64192MB)
    Faking node 2 at [mem 0x0000002040000000-0x000000283fffffff] (32768MB)
    Faking node 3 at [mem 0x0000002840000000-0x000000303fffffff] (32768MB)

And finally the kernel crashes:

    BUG: Bad page state in process swapper  pfn:00011
    page:(____ptrval____) refcount:0 mapcount:1 mapping:(____ptrval____) index:0x55cd7e44b270 pfn:0x11

Fix this bug via using 0 as the starting node ID.  This restores the
original behavior before cc9aec03e5.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
