[Patch 1/4] x86: get pg_data_t's memory from other node

From: Yasuaki Ishimatsu
Date: Mon May 14 2012 - 07:57:49 EST


If system can create movable node which all memory of the
node is allocated as ZONE_MOVABLE, setup_node_data() cannot
allocate memory for the node's pg_data_t.
So when memblock_alloc_nid() fails, setup_node_data() retries
memblock_alloc().
