is 64 here the maxnode parameter of migrate_pages() ?

According to manpage of migrate_pages:

        EINVAL The value specified by maxnode exceeds a kernel-imposed
limit.  Or, old_nodes or new_nodes specifies one or more node IDs that
are greater than the maximum supported node ID.  Or, none of the node
IDs specified by new_nodes are on-line and allowed by the process's
current cpuset context, or none of the specified nodes contain memory.

if maxnode parameter is 64, but MAX_NUMNODES ("kernel-imposed limit") is
4, we should get EINVAL just because of that. I don't see such check in
the migrate_pages implementation though. But then at least the
"new_nodes specifies one or more node IDs that are greater than the
maximum supported node ID" part should trigger here, because you have
node number 8 set in the new_nodes nodemask, right?
get_nodes() should be checking this according to comment:

        /* When the user specified more nodes than supported just check
           if the non supported part is all zero. */

Somehow that doesn't seem to work then? I think we should look into
this. Your patch may still be needed, or not, after that is resolved.
