Function profile_cpu_callback() allocates memory without specifying __GFP_THISNODE flag, so replace cpu_to_mem() with cpu_to_node() because cpu_to_mem() may cause suboptimal memory allocation if there's no free memory on the node returned by cpu_to_mem(). It's safe to use cpu_to_mem() because build_all_zonelists() also builds suitable fallback zonelist for memoryless node.
