The cpus in node 3 aren't onlined and there's no memory attached - I suspect that no zonelists are built for this node. We skip creating a node, if the number of SRAT entries parsed exceeds NR_CPUS[0]. This in turn prevents onlining the numa node and so no zonelists will be created for it. I think the problem will go away if the cpus are restricted via the kernel command line by setting nr_cpus. Xie, can you try the below patch on top of the one enabling memoryless nodes? I'm not sure this is the right solution but at least it'll confirm the problem.
