[PATCH] fix NUMA boundaray between ZONE_NORMAL and HIGHMEM
From: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org> This patch eliminates the false hole which can form between ZONE_NORMAL and ZONE_HIGHMEM. This is most easily seen when 4g/4g split is enabled, but it's always broken, and we just happen not to hit it most of the time. Basically, the patch changes the allocation of the numa remaps regions (the source of the holes) such that they officially fall within VMALLOC space, where they belong. Tested in -mjb for a couple of months, and again against 2.6.7-mm1. Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org> Signed-off-by: Martin J. Bligh <mbligh@aracnet.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
