[ 0.000000] 871MB LOWMEM available. To fix this issue, node data is allowed to be allocated from other nodes if the memory of local node is still not mapped. The expected result looks like this: [ 0.000000] Initmem setup node 0 [mem 0x00000000-0x83fffffff] [ 0.000000] NODE_DATA [mem 0x367ed000-0x367edfff] [ 0.000000] Initmem setup node 1 [mem 0x840000000-0xfffffffff] [ 0.000000] NODE_DATA [mem 0x367ec000-0x367ecfff] [ 0.000000] NODE_DATA(1) on node 0 [ 0.000000] 64664MB HIGHMEM available. [ 0.000000] 871MB LOWMEM available.

But memblock_alloc_base() inside memblock_alloc_try_nid() may cause kernel panic if __memblock_alloc_base() inside it fails. In current stage, it is allowed if node data fails to be allocated. Thanks, lz
