Again, You need to check and update all the wq->numa_pwq_tbl[oldnode],
but in this patchset, the required information is lost and we can't find out oldnode.


cpus of oldnode, 16-31(online),48,56,64,72(offline,randomly assigned to the oldnode by numa_init_array())

and then cpu#48 is allocated for newnode and online

Now, the wq->numa_pwq_tbl[oldnode]'s cpumask still have cpu#48, and it may be scheduled to cpu#48.
See the information of my patch 4/5
