So I think there may still be some issues. I see how you go from the
start to the end, but how to you loop back to the start again as pages
are added? The init_hinting_wq doesn't seem to have a way to get back
to the start again if there is still work to do after you have
completed your pass without queue_work_on firing off another thread.

The quick approach would be to add some piece of metadata somewhere in
the page that you could trigger off of. If you could do that then drop
the need for all these extra checks and instead just not perform the
notification on the pages. I really don't think the addition of the
"Treated" flag was all that invasive, at least within the kernel. It
would allow you to avoid all the changes to free_one_page, and
__free_one_page.

So it doesn't cause a panic, but with 2 NUMA nodes you are only
hinting on half the memory. I was able to build, test, and verify
this. I had resolved it by simply multiplying MAX_NR_ZONES by
MAX_NUMNODES, and splitting my indices between node and zone.
