here is proposed fix:
https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg864009.html

It returns NUMA_NO_NODE from both static-inline (CONFIG_OF=n) and weak
version of of_node_to_nid(). This change might affect few arches which
whave CONFIG_OF=y but doesn't implement of_node_to_nid() (i.e. depends
on default behavior of weak function). It seems this is only metag.

From mm/ point of view returning NUMA_NO_NODE is a right choice when
code have no idea which numa node should be used -- memory allocation
functions choose current numa node (but they might use any).

When we test the cpu and memory hotplug feature in the server with x86

The situation is that when memory in node0 is offline,the system is down
during booting.

Ah, I was thinking those platforms were relying on the default
implementation. I guess any real NUMA support is going to need to
override this function. The arm64 patch series does that as well. We
need to be sure this change is correct for metag which appears to be
the only other OF enabled platform with NUMA support.
In that case, then there is little reason to keep the inline and we
can just always enable the weak function (with your change). It is
slightly less optimal, but the few callers hardly appear to be hot
paths.
