Somehow I missed that we were freeing up the memory when CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG was not in place. So your patch makes sense to me now, sorry. Since my patchset [1] + cleanup patch [2] remove almost all __paginginit, leaving only pgdat_init_internals() and zone_init_internals(), I think it would be great if you base your patch on top of that. Or since the patchset has some cleanups already, I could add your patch into it (as we did for the zone_to/set_nid() patch) and send a v6 with it. What do you think?
