From: Johannes Weiner<hannes@xxxxxxxxxxx> __GFP_OTHER_NODE is used for NUMA allocations on behalf of other nodes. It's supposed to be passed through from the page allocator to zone_statistics(), but it never gets there as gfp_allowed_mask is not wide enough and masks out the flag early in the allocation path. The result is an accounting glitch where successful NUMA allocations by-agent are not properly attributed as local. Increase __GFP_BITS_SHIFT so that it includes __GFP_OTHER_NODE.
