I would not expect kzalloc_node() to return memory that's offline, no matter what node we told it to allocate from. I could imagine it returning failure, or returning memory from a node that *is* online, but returning a pointer to offline memory seems broken. Are we putting memory that's offline in the free list? I don't know where to look to figure this out. Bjorn
