[PATCH] Fix broken kmalloc_node in rc1/rc2
This patch used to be in Andrew's tree before the NUMA slab allocator went in. Either this patch or the NUMA slab allocator is needed in order for kmalloc_node to work correctly. pcibus_to_node may be used to generate the node information passed to kmalloc_node. pcibus_to_node returns -1 if it was not able to determine on which node a pcibus is located. For that case kmalloc_node must work like kmalloc. Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <christoph@lameter.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
