It seems like adding a "Fixes:" tag would be appropriate.

Double-check me, but I think this approach has a flaw in that
numa_map_to_online_node() doesn't check the input node for being
out-of-range. The call to node_online() uses the input node to index into
the node_states bitmap (of type nodemask_t), and could go off the end of
the bitmap if the input node isn't validated to be less than MAX_NUMNODES
(or nr_node_ids).
