Revert "slab: remove BAD_ALIEN_MAGIC"

This reverts commit a640616822 ("slab: remove BAD_ALIEN_MAGIC").

commit a640616822 ("slab: remove BAD_ALIEN_MAGIC") assumes that the
system with !CONFIG_NUMA has only one memory node.  But, it turns out to
be false by the report from Geert.  His system, m68k, has many memory
nodes and is configured in !CONFIG_NUMA.  So it couldn't boot with above
change.

Here goes his failure report.

  With latest mainline, I'm getting a crash during bootup on m68k/ARAnyM:

  enable_cpucache failed for radix_tree_node, error 12.

  Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint
  Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task!

Although there is a alternative way to fix this issue such as disabling
use of alien cache on !CONFIG_NUMA, but, reverting issued commit is better
to me in this time.
