Subject: [PATCH] workqueue: don't perform NUMA-aware allocations on offline
 nodes in wq_numa_init()

>From 1be0c25da56e860992af972a60321563ca2cfcd1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

wq_numa_init() builds per-node cpumasks which are later used to make
unbound workqueues NUMA-aware.  The cpumasks are allocated using
alloc_cpumask_var_node() for all possible nodes.  Unfortunately, on
machines with off-line nodes, this leads to NUMA-aware allocations on
existing bug offline nodes, which in turn triggers BUG in the memory
allocation code.

Fix it by using NUMA_NO_NODE for cpumask allocations for offline
nodes.

Applied to wq/for-3.10-fixes.  Will push to Linus in several days.

Thanks!
