When we break while (1), our nid will not exceed max_nid because:
while (1)
...
if (unlikely(nid >= nm_i->max_nid))
nid = 0;
then next_scan_nid is assigned nid, for next round in build_free_nids
our nid which is assigned next_scan_nid will also not exceed max_nid.
So get_current_nat_page will get the right meta page.
