Subject: Re: [PATCH] change global zonelist order on NUMA v3

Hmmmm... One additional easy way to fix this would be to create a DMA 
node and place it very distant to other nodes. This would make it a 
precious system resource that is only used for

1. GFP_DMA allocations

2. If the memory on the other nodes is exhausted.
