Hmm that doesn't look relevant, but that address was marked as unreliable, no?
Don't we actually need this one?

[    8.768727] NIP [c0000000003d55f4] ___slab_alloc+0x1f4/0x760

So there's no "set_numa_mem 0 -> X", specifically not
"set_numa_mem 0 -> 1" which I would have expected. That seems to confirm my
suspicion that the arch code doesn't set up the memoryless node 0 properly.
