openvswitch: allocate nr_node_ids flow_stats instead of num_possible_nodes
Some architectures like POWER can have a NUMA node_possible_map that contains sparse entries. This causes memory corruption with openvswitch since it allocates flow_cache with a multiple of num_possible_nodes() and assumes the node variable returned by for_each_node will index into flow->stats[node]. Use nr_node_ids to allocate a maximal sparse array instead of num_possible_nodes(). The crash was noticed after 3af229f2 was applied as it changed the node_possible_map to match node_online_map on boot.
