sched: numa: Do not group tasks if last cpu is not set

On configurations with vmemmap disabled, the following partial is observed

The oops occurs in task_numa_group looking up cpu_rq(LAST__CPU_MASK). The
bug exists for all configurations but will manifest differently. On vmemmap
configurations, it looks up garbage and on !vmemmap configuraitons it
will oops. This patch adds the necessary check and also fixes the type
for LAST__PID_MASK and LAST__CPU_MASK which are currently signed instead
of unsigned integers.
