What does "256c2t" mean?

Why not use nid directly in the following list_add()?

This function name could be gather_bootmem_prealloc_node.

s/init/initialize/g

And you miss a black right before "*/".

It it not intuitive. I'd like to use a 'initialied' variable
to indicate whether it has been initialized. BTW, it can be
marked as __initdata.
