O(nr_nodes^2) data.. ISTR people rewriting a certain slab allocator to
get rid of that :-)

Also, don't forget that MAX_NUMNODES is an unconditional 512 on distro
kernels, even when we only have 2.

Now the total wasted space isn't too bad since its only 16 bytes,
totaling a whole 2M for a 256 node system. But still, something like
that wants at least a mention somewhere.
