x86_32 numa is the only setter of HAVE_ARCH_BOOTMEM. I don't know why
this arch has a strict preference/requirement(?) for bootmem on node
0.
I found this mail from Yinghai
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123614990906256&w=2
where he says that it expects all bootmem on node zero but with the
current code and alloc_arch_preferred_bootmem() failing, we could fall
back to another node. Won't this break? Yinghai?
Otherwise, could we perhaps use something as simple as this?
