From: Wei Yang <richard.weiyang@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: memcg: do not tweak node in alloc_mem_cgroup_per_node_info alloc_mem_cgroup_per_node_info is allocated for each possible node and this used to be a problem because !node_online nodes didn't have appropriate data structure allocated. This has changed by "mm: handle uninitialized numa nodes gracefully" so we can drop the special casing here.
