      Safer nr_node_ids and nr_node_ids determination and initial values · 476f3534
      Christoph Lameter authored
      
      The nr_cpu_ids value is currently only calculated in smp_init.  However, it
      may be needed before (SLUB needs it on kmem_cache_init!) and other kernel
      components may also want to allocate dynamically sized per cpu array before
      smp_init.  So move the determination of possible cpus into sched_init()
      where we already loop over all possible cpus early in boot.
      
      Also initialize both nr_node_ids and nr_cpu_ids with the highest value they
      could take.  If we have accidental users before these values are determined
      then the current valud of 0 may cause too small per cpu and per node arrays
      to be allocated.  If it is set to the maximum possible then we only waste
      some memory for early boot users.

      [PATCH] highest_possible_node_id() linkage fix · 6220ec78
      Andrew Morton authored
      
      Qooting Adrian:
      
      - net/sunrpc/svc.c uses highest_possible_node_id()
      
      - include/linux/nodemask.h says highest_possible_node_id() is
        out-of-line #if MAX_NUMNODES > 1
      
      - the out-of-line highest_possible_node_id() is in lib/cpumask.c
      
      - lib/Makefile: lib-$(CONFIG_SMP) += cpumask.o
        CONFIG_ARCH_DISCONTIGMEM_ENABLE=y, CONFIG_SMP=n, CONFIG_SUNRPC=y
      
      -> highest_possible_node_id() is used in net/sunrpc/svc.c
         CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT defined and > 0
      
      -> include/linux/numa.h: MAX_NUMNODES > 1
      
      -> compile error
      
      The bug is not present on architectures where ARCH_DISCONTIGMEM_ENABLE
      depends on NUMA (but m32r isn't the only affected architecture).
      
      So move the function into page_alloc.c
