Hi Gavin,

Sorry, there has been some misunderstanding. Please see below.

In patch v1, this was:

  +Note that the empty NUMA nodes, which no memory resides in, are allowed 

and I said:

  Missing period at end of the sentence above.

What I meant by that was "Missing 'period' ('.') punctuation at the end
of the sentence above. So it should simply be changed to:


  +Note that the empty NUMA nodes, which no memory resides in, are allowed.

Sorry about the confusion.
