No idea ;-)

My main intention with this patch was to quite some sparse noise in
net/sunrpc/svc.c.  This seemed the cleanest way to do it.

It looks like any_online_node is, currently, only called by:

arch/powerpc/mm/numa.c
  3 places, twice setting a local int variable called 'nid' and once just
  returning the 'node' from the macro.  All three call the marco as:

	... any_online_node(NODE_MASK_ALL);

net/sunrpc/svc.c
  1 place, setting a local unsigned int variable called 'node'.  Calls the
  macro as:

	... any_online_node(node_online_map);

I really don't know if the macro could be replaced by first_node(node_online_map).

Regards,
Hartley
