    [PATCH] ia64: mark non-existent NUMA-nodes as offline · 0c5cadc9
    Robert Picco authored
    I found a problem with HP NUMA configuration in 2.6.7-rc3-mm1.  The
    node_online_map is incorrect because of actions taken by
    reassign_cpu_only_nodes in arch/ia64/mm/discontig.c.  The mm1 patch
    which changes the mempolicy for the init_task uses this invalid
    node_online_map and eventually uses a non-existent node's zonelist
    when calling __alloc_pages.
    
    The patch below takes care of this issue.  It puts the non-existent
    nodes offline.
