It depends on CONFIG_NUMA only on arm, and I really don't know
if there is a good justification for it. It not, that will be a much
simpler fix.

I don't think it makes no sense:
it tries to reserve a cma area on each node (need for_each_node_state()),
and it uses the for_each_mem_pfn_range() to get a min and max pfn
for each node. With !CONFIG_NUMA the first part is reduced to one
iteration and the second part is not required at all.
I agree that for_each_mem_pfn_range() here looks quite ugly, but I don't know
of a better way to get min/max pfns for a node so early in the boot process.
If somebody has any ideas here, I'll appreciate a lot.
I know Rik plans some further improvements here, so the goal for now
is to fix the build. If you think that enabling CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP
unconditionally is a way to go, I'm fine with it too.
Rik also posted a different fix for the build problem, but from what I've
seen it didn't fix it completely. I'm fine with either option here.
Thanks!
