Yes, this changelog is missing rather a lot of important information.

I pulled together the below, please check.

Subject: sched/numa, mm: do not try to migrate memory to memoryless nodes
Date: Mon, 19 Feb 2024 13:10:47 +0900

With numa balancing on, when a numa system is running where a numa node
doesn't have its local memory so it has no managed zones, the following
oops has been observed.  It's because wakeup_kswapd() is called with a
wrong zone index, -1.  Fixed it by checking the index before calling
wakeup_kswapd().
