What functional effect does this #ifdef have?

Let's look at the code:

and "play compiler" for a bit.

The first iteration will see early_cpu_to_node(i)==1 because:

static inline int early_cpu_to_node(int cpu)
{
        return 0;
}

if CONFIG_NUMA=n.

In other words, I'm not sure this patch does *anything*.
