how about

Subject: [PATCH] mm: clear N_HIGH_MEMORY map before se set it again -v3

in case some system strange SRAT table. some kind of small range form some node
or with mem= boot option etc. that node will not be onlined.  
In the early checking, the bit in node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY] for the
node is set even that node has less RAM like 1M.

The N_HIGH_MEMORY bit is set for all onlines nodes in a loop that follows the 
code that is modified. The patch insures that bits do not remain set that 
earlier arch / core code may have set.

for 64bit N_HIGH_MEMORY == N_NORMAL_MEMORY, so that works for 64 bit too

v3: update description according to Christoph
