The patch titled x86 align highmem zone boundaries with NUMA has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is x86-align-highmem-zone-boundaries-with-numa.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this From: Andy Whitcroft <apw@xxxxxxxxxxxx> When in x86 NUMA mode we allocate struct pages's node local and map them into the kernel virtual address space in the remap space. This space cuts into the end of ZONE_NORMAL. When we round ZONE_NORMAL down we must ensure we maintain the zone boundary constraint, we must round to MAX_ORDER.
