Wrong node seems worth notifying and we can figure out on the backend
where the backport makes sense.

It just feels like numa_fill_memblks() has absolutely no business being
defined in arch/x86/include/asm/sparsemem.h.

The only use for numa_fill_memblks() is to arrange for NUMA nodes to be
applied to memory ranges hot-onlined by the CXL driver.

It belongs right next to numa_add_memblk(), and I suspect
arch/x86/include/asm/sparsemem.h was only chosen to avoid figuring out
what to do about the fact that linux/numa.h does not include asm/numa.h
and that all implementations either provide numa_add_memblk() or select
the generic implementation.

So I would prefer that this do the proper fix and get
numa_fill_memblks() completely out of the sparsemem.h path.

Something like the following which boots for me:
