I hit a bug on an AMD machine, with kexec -l nr_cpus=4 option. It is due to
some pgdat is not instanced when specifying nr_cpus, e.g, on x86, not
initialized by init_cpu_to_node()->init_memory_less_node(). But
device->numa_node info is used as preferred_nid param for
__alloc_pages_nodemask(), which causes NULL reference
ac->zonelist = node_zonelist(preferred_nid, gfp_mask);
Although this bug is detected on x86, it should affect all archs, where
a machine with a numa-node having no memory, if nr_cpus prevents the
instance of the node, and the device on the node tries to allocate memory
with device->numa_node info.
There are two alternative methods to fix the bug.
-1. Make all possible numa nodes be instanced. This should be done for all
archs
-2. Using zonelist instead of pgdat when encountering un-instanced node,
and only do this when needed.
This patch adopts the 2nd method, uses possible_zonelist[] to mirror
node_zonelists[], and tries to build zonelist for the offline node when needed.
Notes about the crashing info:
-1. kexec -l with nr_cpus=4
-2. system info
NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0,8,16,24
NUMA node1 CPU(s): 2,10,18,26
NUMA node2 CPU(s): 4,12,20,28
NUMA node3 CPU(s): 6,14,22,30
NUMA node4 CPU(s): 1,9,17,25
NUMA node5 CPU(s): 3,11,19,27
NUMA node6 CPU(s): 5,13,21,29
NUMA node7 CPU(s): 7,15,23,31

Other notes about the reproduction of this bug:
After appling the following patch:
'commit 0d76bcc960e6 ("Revert "ACPI/PCI: Pay attention to device-specific
_PXM node values"")'
This bug is covered and not triggered on my test AMD machine.
But it should still exist since dev->numa_node info can be set by other
method on other archs when using nr_cpus param
