Subject: SLUB: do not fail on broken memory configurations
From: Christoph Lameter <clameter@xxxxxxx>
Print a big fat warning and do what is necessary to continue if a node is
marked as up (meaning either node is online (upstream) or node has memory
(Andrew's tree)) but allocations from the node do not succeed.
