This will blow up if passed size=16M. We can expect that powerpc (at
least) will want to copy (or generalise) this code. It would be better
to avoid such restrictions at the outset.

The code contains rather a lot of these awkward wordwraps. Try using
pr_err() and you'll find the result quite pleasing!

The patch adds code to mm/hugetlb.c which only x86 will use. I guess
that's OK medium-term if we expect other architectures will use it.
But if other architectures use it, setup_hugepagesnid() was in the wrong
directory.
Can I ask that you poke the ppc/arm/ia64/etc people, see whether they
will adpot this? Explaining the overall justification better in [patch
0/n] would help this discussion!

Using an unsigned long for a NUMA node ID is overkill, surely.
