Hi Pavel,
the above would not work fine.
You set either N_NORMAL_MEMORY or N_HIGH_MEMORY, but a node can have both
types of memory at the same time (on CONFIG_HIGHMEM systems).
N_HIGH_MEMORY stands for regular or high memory
while N_NORMAL_MEMORY stands only for regular memory,
that is why we set it only in case the zone is <= ZONE_NORMAL.

This makes sense.
