Subject: Re: [PATCH v3] mm: fix panic in __alloc_pages

Alexey,
this is still not finalized but it would really help if you could give
it a spin on your setup. I still have to think about how to transition
from a memoryless node to standard node (in hotplug code). Also there
might be other surprises on the way.
